First signs of spring - Street photography

in #photography7 years ago

After months of short, gloomy winter days, the sun was finally able to break through the clouds yesterday to announce the soon arrival of spring. It's by far my favorite time of year - longer days, awakening of nature, animals, scents... everything is alive and calling you outside.

You can see from the photos the city was swarming with people who were enjoying the beautiful day. I went to the old fortress, one of the popular gathering spots, and tried to capture this awakening from the winter slumber.

As always, hope you enjoy it!

That bridge and tunnel provides such a great frame for you. I like the 10th one in particular as it frames the building and river in the background. I also like the 9th one with the people entering the tunnel arch.

I can tell from the people's faces that the drudgery of winter has lapsed into hopes of spring and summer.

As always, wonderful stories.

I've been wandering around that fortress for years and just now realized this spot would be great for framing and composition. :)
It's crazy how you can feel the energy and joy as soon as the first sunny days come. People here love spring.

Thanks again!

These are amazing photos. You make your town look like a prime tourist destination. The local chamber of commerce should pay you good money for these.

Haha thanks! I might ask them if they are interested in collaboration. 😄

Oh, it looks like it was a beautiful day @alcibiades! Over here things do not look the same. It has been raining almost non-stop for nearly two weeks ☔️
As for your stunning photos, I am going to choose, number 2, from the bottom up 😊. It is BEAUTIFUL!

I'm sorry to hear that, Abigail :/ Let's hope the weather gets nicer soon.
That photo is my favorite as well! Such a lovely sight with this couple enjoying the beautiful day. Thanks for the comment! 😊

Your photos always contain plenty of life! I almost expect the people to start moving :D. You manage to seize the moment

I'm glad you think so! That's why I love street photography. :)

Hey man, It's been around 20ºC here in the last few days, and I really enjoyed spending time outside without my heavy winter jacket :) You have captured the spring spirit perfectly!

Cheers man, glad to hear Sofia is waking up as well.

Let me follow and be friendly with you. I wait every post you.

finally sunshine and ppl can walk normally at the streets and make some activities , spring is like a hope and a smile :)
thanks for positive photos

Love the photo with the couple on the bench. That screams spring is on its way to me.
