or for those who like colours, like me! Some more images of the chapels spread all over the city. It’s so nice when they pop out at night with their X-mas decoration or music!
For the people passing by Desierto de los Leones, you really have to go close and listen to the Christmas music, playing all night long!
I digged up and retouched these cityscapes to get myself 100% in the mood to leave to Mexico this Friday! I hope to get more magical lights later on!
The last weeks I had call ups in some magazines to find more typical Flemish interiors. And I am very satistfied with the response. I am putting more and more dots on my map to gather the addresses! So, I am ready for more action on the field!
These pictures of mine participate in the competition “DE FILM VAN MIJN LEVEN” of the television channel Canvas. You can still send your pictures until midnight 26th of May on the website of Canvas. (I do hate the colour desaturation of WordPress :s )
At last I managed to try out my polaroid-back on my second-hand Pentax 6×7. I am so happy it works! And Fuji is still providing the necessary instant film FP-100C. So I wanna share the first one I made with you! I will try to scan it on a much higher resolution later on so the structure of the instant film is visible. I can’t wait to shoot more pola’s!

It took me some time to process the high amount of films… But here are the first pictures scanned and retouched! I also took these chapels on digital (see previous posts), so you can compare and let me know which one you like the best (WordPress does flat the bright colors I had…). More will follow!
The last week I have been working very hard on scanning and retouching the film I shot. I will upload some pictures soon…
Today I went down to Fontaine L’Evêque to check out a beetle reunion with the theme “La Cox à Mexico”. It was great to have the Mexican vibes and smiling vocho’s surrounding me! There was even a vocho verde (taxi), home made in Belgium! I hope to see them again in Mexico City before they all disapear…
Some images of the reunion:
A few more digital shots. My films are in the lab. Tomorrow I should be able to scan them and know if the 3 weeks of work were worth all the effort!
Yesterday was my last shooting day, so I took the advantage to take another angle from Periferico. This time without a car crash! The other pictures is from the flower market in Santa Angel. Even at 10pm they were still people hoping to sell their flowers…
