As I saw recently in the streets of Mexico City.  The intrigue is eternal and the fact remains that I will never even come close to getting my head around a minute fraction of it all but still, small fractions of the whole can at least add up to something, also minute as it is.  All of these shots are from the streets of the historic centre and are all mobile telephone shots.  Soon, as I think I previously mentioned, I may try my hand at trying to express some of the character and chaos of the streets using the humble written word, strength be forthcoming.  I´ve got some more photography material up my sleeve so bear with a couple more editions of nine shots from the street and I will let my voice free.
