THE WAY I SEE (DOGS) - Street photography from Montalbán, Carabobo, Venezuela || ENG-ESP || (09 Pics)

Don't let my stray dogs stay on my hard drives, let them get out of there and transform themselves into messages which speak about streets animated by their gazes... Can anything be more eloquent than a dog's gaze?... Every month I take hundreds of photos with stray dogs or with homes, it doesn't matter... I don't understand my town without its dogs, they are an integral part of the street history here...

Que mis perros callejeros no se queden en mis discos duros, que salgan de allí y se transformen en mensajes que hablen de calles animadas por sus miradas... ¿Hay algo más elocuente que la mirada de un perro?... Cada mes hago cientos de fotos con perros callejeros o con hogares, no importa... Yo no entiendo mi pueblo sin sus perros, ellos son parte integral de la historia callejera aquí...

"A boulevard angel"/"Un ángel de bulevar"

I wander along my town's streets, trying to freeze time with my camera... I'm a kind of crazy hybrid between nihilist and consummate romantic. So I hear voices, I imagine things, I laugh alone, I see dead people and I talk out loud without having anyone to talk to... But the dogs get me out of there, they bring me back and put my feet on the ground... I look at them and I see angels whose single purpose is perhaps to make us humans better... I was born and grew up looking at them, I have in my memories their joys and my sorrows... I conclude that they should be eternal and I also think that, if there is a heaven, then there must be dogs there to be able to caress them among clouds and eternal lights...

Yo deambulo por las calles de mi pueblo procurando congelar el tiempo con mi cámara... Soy una especie de loco híbrido entre nihilista y romántico consumado. Entonces escucho voces, imagino cosas, me río solo,veo gente muerta y hablo en voz alta sin tener con quien... Pero los perros me sacan de allí, ellos me hacen regresar y poner los pies en tierra... Les miro y miro ángeles cuyo único propósito es quizás hacer que nosotros los humanos seamos mejores... Nací y crecí mirándolos, tengo en mis memorias sus alegrías y mis tristezas... Concluyo que deberían ser eternos y también pienso que, sí acaso existe el cielo, entonces ha de haber perros allá para poder acariciarlos entre nubes y luces eternas...

I could spend hours writing to my stray dogs, just as I could spend hours, days, months and years taking photos of them... There is something therapeutic about these charming animals... It is not by chance that they are so close to us humans. I don't know how to explain it, but there is something "intertwined" in our memories as a species and that of the dogs... At 53 years of age, I am still enraptured when I meet a dog's gaze directly in the street. It is like being "always a child" when this happens... I can almost hear them thinking... There is a "strange communion" between them and any of us whose sensibility is high enough to perceive it...

Podría pasar horas escribiéndole a mis perros callejeros, así como podría pasar horas, días,meses y años haciéndoles fotos... Hay algo de terapéutico en estos animales encantadores... No es casualidad que sean tan cercanos a nosotros los humanos. No sé explicarlo, pero hay algo "entrelazado" en nuestras memorias como especie y la de los perros... A mis 53 años me sigo embelesando cuando cruzo mi mirada directamente con la de un perro en la calle. Esto es como ser "siempre niño" cuando esto sucede... Casi puedo escucharlos pensar... Hay una "comunión extraña" entre ellos y cualquier de nosotros cuya sensibilidad sea lo suficientemente alta para percibirlo...

Gee, it makes me happy that my dogs haven't stayed on my hard drives and continue to emerge to be with you here on #Hive... The last photo (9) is for "Tuco", a little dog from the nearby neighbourhood that I've seen for so many years that I can't remember how many there are. His owner told me that Tuco turned 17 years old last December and that's lovely...

Caray, me hace feliz el que mis perro no se hayan quedado en mis discos duros y sigan emergiendo para estar con ustedes aquí en #Hive... La ultimo foto (9) es para "Tuco", un perrito del vecindario cercano al cual he visto desde hace tantos años que ya no recuerdo cuantos son. Su dueña me ha dicho que Tuco cumplió 17 años en diciembre pasado y eso es encantador...


Thank you very much for your visit and appreciation!

¡Muchas gracias por pasar y apreciar!

Los perros sobre todos los callejeros guardan cierta nobleza, cuando los miras pareciera estar mirando a los ojos de una persona, Saludos ✌️👍

Cada uno mirando en las calles en una foto en sí mismo, tan solo hay que estar ahí para poder robar la escena del tiempo y capturarla... Gracias por pasar y apreciar...

Wow, it's interesting for me to see my friend @jlinaresp bro, in this post I saw a cat from Venezuela, there are no views on this post, I know this is the world of dogs, but I really like cats, that's how it is, bro Jlinaresp 😁😁😁👍👍👍

Ah... Don't worry friend!... I also have dozens of street cats photographed, I will share them at any opportunity!... ;) Thanks for appreciating and visiting...

Iya bro @jlinaresp 😁😁😁👍

Are these all owned dogs that are allowed to wander the streets or are some living permanently on the streets by themselves (abandoned/feral)? In Thailand we have a real mix which makes the streets fascinating. I love having them around!

Hello friend @adrianwild!... It's like that, they are what I call "half-stray dogs" because almost all of them spend the night in houses or receive care and food from neighbors and it is common to see them sleeping in backyards or doorsteps... You're right... It's fascinating to have them around!... Thank you for appreciating my work! ;)

Same thing here my friend, we have a lot of stray dogs as well, and I hope I can capture many of them in the future during my street photo hunt.

Good luck with that, my dear @ekavieka!... They are frankly charming creatures. You can learn a lot about photography and about yourself as a person by taking photos of them. On the one hand, they offer a great variety of visual factors and are usually in varied environments, that is good for us as photographers... And on the other hand, their emotional content is something that helps us work better with our "psychological photography." ... Thank you always for stopping by and appreciating, also for commenting!... Happy week!

I totally agree, I think the same thing, there is no look more eloquent than that of a dog. My Pupy tells me everything with her eyes, they are great companions ❤️ Beautiful photos

Dogs and fog? Anything that incorporates fog is amazing but from your photographic eye it is even better. Beautiful moments @jlinaresp friend!
