En torno al mediodía, es difícil ver gente por las calles en los pueblos de Castilla. En este caso estamos en La Mancha. A pesar de los toldos que protegen las calles del fuerte sol, la mayoría de las calles estaban casi desiertas, pues la temperatura suele superar a esas horas los 30º. La luz filtrada por los toldos daba un toque cálido, un tanto irreal, a esta preciosa y larga calle.

*****************

Around the midday, it's difficult to see people for the streets in the villages of Castilla. In this case we are in La Mancha (The Quijote's land). In spite of the tents that protect the streets of the strong Sun, the majority of the streets were almost desert, since the temperature is usually overcoming at these hours the 30 º. The light filtered through the tents was giving a hot, rather unreal touch, to this beautiful and long street.

Hola Ángel, no conozco Villanueva de los Infantes y fotos como esta animan al deseo de visitar estos pueblos, me gusta la luz y la profundidad que has conseguido, buena definición y unos colores muy naturales.

Felicidades amigo.

Un abrazo.

Une superbe enfilade, tout dans les memes tons. La lumiere filtree par les toiles est tres interessante. La voiture (?) rouge au fond un element de couleur vive qui nous emmene tout au loin. Tres bien vu.

:-) demain

Hi Angel, Great depth created here, the soft light & the neutral colours go very well, you focus is very good, & I agree where are the people?, TFS, kind regards Wilson.

Bonsoir Angel
la perspective est très belle. J'aime l'idée qu'elle n'en finisse pas. Les tissus apportent une touche de douceur à l'ensemble. Belle photo
Xavier

Muy buena foto!!!, donde esta la gente???
Buena composicion.

Hola Angel.

Hombre, al mediodía la respuesta es fácil: tirados en casa amorrados al ventilador.

A mi me gusta quitando el coche del final que me joroba un poco aunque debo reconocer que es una manía personal.

Un saludo, Oscar

dear angel,
very impressive photo, very nice perspective and perfect timing
congratulations
best wishes

Angel,
You played perfectly with the perspective in this one.
Your exposure is perfect too, a nice one,
Regards,
JB.

Hello Angel
Une idée originale et une superbe réalisation; Une très belle lumière bien filtrée par ces toiles.
Un bon effet de perspective.
beau travail
Amicalement
Hervé

Hola Angel!

Una composicion impecable y una perspectiva, muy impresionante, amigo! Gran manejo de luz, y perfecto contraste. A mi, me gusta que no haya gente. Felicidades!

Un saludo,
Hercules

Very nice soft & pleasant colors. Great composition of the shaded pedestrian lane with pleasing lines & textures on the path. Maybe it's siesta time. Regards. Latiff.

HOla Angel,
I like the orderly framing and the light;
But old habits die hard; the heat of the day is for resting in the cool of ones house, not for roaming the sorching streets!! Very sensible people!! SAA, Pat

Good morning Angel. Siesta time in Castilla.....it really looks deserted and I love the way you strenghted this deserted feeling by shooting at this angle. The reflection in the shopwindow is vital here and I really dig the rhythmic architecture.
Very nice work!
Have a fine day,
Bert

Hola Angel
Interesting shot of everyday life in La Mancha. The sunshades look like a practical means of keeping the sun off (evidently you are getting more sun than we are this summer in Switzerland!) and the absence of life gives an almost eerie feel. Nice perspective along the street and a well exposed image.
regards, Susanna

Y hola otra vez, Ángel.

Sencilla pero correcta foto de la que destaco... la ausencia de gente en la calle. Claro, en este tipo de pueblos no es algo que me pueda sorprender.

Un saludo.

Hi Angel!

This is very good photo! Good frame and great perspective, very nice delicate colors.

well done!

Jacek

Hi Angel, beautiful one, a long persepctive with a great DOF and with amazing tones, a well managed light and high quality.
thanks, ciao

En esta foto todo es muy geométrico, y me gusta eso, además retransmite muy bien esa sensación de calor, de calor manchego además, que no es moco de pavo. Buena composición, un beso Angelillo.

Hola Angel,
Nice typical street(white walls and black balcony)at the moment of the "siesta"...it remind me the 1st time i went to Spain...it at figueras around 3pm and i was very surprise to see just empty streets...exactly like in your picture,
gracia,
vincent
