Walking, Strolling And Eating Around One of The Busiest Cities In West Africa.

in #travelfeed4 years ago

I hardly do photography but videos mostly! This is very ironical considering the fact that these two almost gets hand in hand, the only time I consider taking pictures is when I see a change in the sky or maybe something nice or something too tempting to pass. Another thing is that picture blogger or photographers sometimes are always looked at strangely or seen as aliens where I'm coming from so we sometimes take it easy while taking pictures but not this time. This place is actually a heavy traffic boluevard in one of the most busiest cities in Africa called Ikeja. The picture was taken on an S4 Infinix Mobile Phone It was taken around 6;15 Pm in the evening and I was actually coming back from eating a meal and then I was amazed at how the colors coming from the cars were coruscating and that's considering how huge the traffic was, it was nonetheless beautiful. What does this scene reminds you of?

Truth is for a person who do not own a professional camera you might not appreciate the power of sunshine when taking photos, but being a person who is limited to mobile phone sometimes I always consider sunshine to be a very powerful tool in creating moments and snaps and shots of really cool moments when it comes to taking pictures and even if sometimes I do not like to edit pictures I believe I want people to see how original it seems rather than editing it and taking away the initial beauty. Well one can't say for sure. These photos are without edits whatsoever.

So Ikeja is a very busy place and this boluevard where this pictures are taken leads to a local restaurant where Nigerian local food is being sold, so government workers from the capital come here to eat and the mostly prefer coming in the evening, so it becomes crowded while they're trying to convey their exotic cars back to their Villa. here was a shot of the food I took

There are so many things I looked at, first the color of the sky there is amazing, it has previously rained the last day and the evening of when I took these pictures were really cool. The road is mostly not busy because it's a government residential area infact you'll see more cars More than you'd see people and that's because it's a private area in one of the most busiest cities in the Africa **Ikeja, Lagos Nigeria to be precise** so here you have it guys. *My mini adventure*

Here this picture was taken at 7;35PM after an adventurous evening after eating the food, I and a few friends settled down for a youghurt and selfie as well by the poolside. This was after wandering and eating the local dishes.
