“I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.”
― Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets
Hi guys. I hope you al are fine. This is my entry to the #monomad challenge. I have seen some really amazing posts here.
The community of fishermen is very mundane in Pakistan. You will find them roaming in the streets selling fish. Some of my friends are coming over for the Iftar that I am hosting for them. So, I decided to get some fish for them. I went to the nearby road and found a fish vendor. I bought the fish for around 2.5 USD.
This is my entry photo. I asked for the permission and he smiled and nodded gently. He looked kind and resilient at the same time. I am always inspired by these people. They are the ones who never quit despite all the adversities they face. He had his hands dirty so that he could feed his children with clean money of honesty. It all makes sense right? I use my Google Pixel 5 for my photography.
I took several other shots too. I used the Adobe Lightroom app to edit and add the black and white colors to these photos. These are my primary apps for editing; very helpful in adding details.
Isn't it fascinating how black and white photography being so simple adds a lot of details in the photos. These photos look deep and very simple at the same time.
What are your thoughts on this type of photography?
Thankfully, the lighting favored me and I was able to take some good photos.
I hope you liked the photos. Do share your views and thoughts in the comments section below so that we can learn and grow together. Thank you for your time and support. It means a lot to me. Do not forget to follow my account for more such content. Have a great day ahead and take care.
Ps: The pictures are mine taken with my Google pixel 5 in my neighborhood.
