A Movie Poster Made on the Street of Mexico City - Los Angeles Travel Photographer

"A scene is a scene.  But a scene with people comes alive", says yours truly. :-)

Did I tell you that a short walk from our hotel to the historical downtown in Mexico City and back was stretched into a whole (fun) day?  Yes, that's one of my strengths, in my own opinion. :-)  Think about it, for a kid that loves candies, wouldn't it be the best thing in the world if the candy lasts the whole day?

When visiting a place on foot, in addition to the monumental locations (sometimes skipped for subjective reasons), we check out the nooks and cracks with much joy.  And this is what we were greeted with, at the end of the day, on our way back to the hotel - four gentlemen sitting on the same bench, each doing their own thing.  What a fun "scenery"!  I exclaimed, in my heart, and secretly raised the camera to my face. :-)

Now, if you allow yourself to step back a little, it looks like a movie poster, doesn't it?  What would be the name of the movie, if that's the case?  You can totally make it up.  Why not have some fun!  

P.S. If you are curious, please follow the links for my other Mexico City Photography.  What's life without curiosity anyway? :p

Poverty in the Center of Prosperity in Mexico City - Los Angeles Travel Photographer

My eyes catch contrasts when I travel, local (yes, you read it right :-) ) or international.  Contrasts come in colors, shapes, or, in this case, the contrast of poverty vs. prosperity, right next to my hotel in downtown Mexico City.  What other contrasts do you see in this image?  Let us hear you in the comment area. :-)P.S. To see my other posts and images made in Mexico City, please follow this link.

A View of a Leaf in its "Golden Years" - Los Angeles Fine Art Photographer

Some of you may already know that I have a crazy obsession/appreciation with lives that have passed their, in common views, "prime time" (see here and here).  This explains my collection of dry leaves, tree barks and flowers that's fallen from their stems.  While majority (if not all) of the world celebrates the birth of a baby, and new growth on a tree, I also appreciate that, with scars, bumps and bruises, a more mature life has a lot more stories to share with a much calmer demeanor.

Take this leaf for example, how do you define its "prime time"?  Had it not for the textures that come with the passing of time and the gifts of elements, would it have captured the light in such an interesting and beautiful way?  Maybe now is its best time? ;-)

Celebrate who (the heck) you are, every day of your life!  Let me know if you need help see the beauty you hold.
