  1. Even in the shadows and darkness, there is life and energy. It’s just a different kind!

    The street lamps appear to be faces watching the passing car and the person on the bicycle.

    • true!
      They seem like two skulls.

      Have a nice day.

        I was going to say demonic, but decided to tone that down a little. Bad omen for that street.

  8. Genial esta serie !! La estética es una maravilla, tanto el ByN como el movimiento. Y la sensación de soledad es perfecta. Me gusta la pregunta final de la historia ¿donde estarán los tiempos de fiesta y felicidad? parece un verso de Brecht. Enhorabuena !!

    • Muchas gracias Carlos.
      Tus series tienen mucho de culpa en que me haya decidido a intentar hilar algo más que una foto construyendo “pequeñas historias visuales”.
      Un saludo.

  11. Buena serie. El gran Bukowski la habría suscrito. Madrid es ya una ciudad muerta y fantasmal, de la que sólo quedan las brumas apagadas del esplendor del pasado. Tengo mis dudas de que las noches de esta ciudad puedan volver a ser alguna vez lo que fueron antaño.

    • Y me da que, en todo caso, ni tu ni yo vamos a verlo.
      Lamentable, pero tiene todos los visos de ser cierto.

  20. HG, these are really sadly beautiful.
    It strikes me that in the photograph with the girl cycling “no traffic”, the street lights look like a pair of glowing skulls. Amazing.
