    Trying Street Photography

    I have always enjoyed people watching, especially while using public transports and walking around the city.

    I recently learned a bit more about the concept of street photography and I thought it would be something that I would enjoy, and it would fit my personality.

    I’m sharing below today’s first try. I used my iPhone Pro 16 with the camera app Halide (since it avoids the processed look that iPhone photos have for a more “natural” look). The photos were edited with the Mac Photos app.

    It feels very awkward to take candid pictures of strangers but people are a much more interesting subject than anything else. More practice will hopefully help with that.

    Maybe expect more photos in the future. If I stick with it, I might even buy a “real” camera…

    The new Lisbon Gulbenkian Modern Art Museum

    After several years the construction of the new Modern Gallery in the Lisbon Gulbenkian museum was finally finished. The big highlight is this curved part of the building that this photo tries to capture. The building was designed by japanese architect Kengo Kuma and Vladimir Djurovi.

    I haven’t had the change to go inside yet but I heard the changes there are not as radical. But the garden outside and this exterior is definitely a nice improvement.
