in Photography Lovers2 years ago

I walk through the streets of a big city and feel as if I am the center of the world. All around me are buildings, people, cars and noise. Everything is so big and alive, as if the city lives its own life independently of me.

The streets are full of life, everyone is rushing somewhere, running, riding bicycles or simply walking. People of all ages, nations and cultures walk past me, carrying their bags, talking to friends or looking at their mobile phones. Every encounter with someone unknown gives me a feeling of excitement and curiosity.

The smells of food spread through the streets, mixing with the smell of exhaust gases. Distant sounds of music and sirens give the city a special atmosphere. You are never alone in this city, and there is always something going on.
The streets of the big city never sleep. During the day they are full of people and cars, and at night they are transformed into light tunnels. Huge neon advertising signs illuminate the pavements, creating a special experience.

There is so much to see and experience in the city. Every corner is different and special. With every step I discover something new, something that fascinates me and leaves me breathless.
Walking through the streets of a big city, I feel alive, I feel connected to this place. The city lives in me, and I live in the city. It is a symbiosis that I cannot describe in words. You just have to feel it.

People in a big city are like little worlds unto themselves. They are different, each has its own story and experience. Passing through the crowd, I see people who are successful, but also those who are fighting for their survival. I see people who are satisfied with their lives, but also those who struggle with adversity.

I really like the way you evoke the city.
I agree with your line of thought, I consider that cities manifest themselves by themselves, and in great part by what their inhabitants contribute.
