Your pictutres are very nice and document very well the way of life of this
Village, the only remark IMHO is that these pictures are a little bit to
strong in contrast, to hard..., maybe is the film...

Good work!

  I've posted some photos of a recent trip to Badiraguato, Mexico. It's a
small town about 70 miles from a major city. I was there four days, along
with my wife and father, visiting some family. The weather was quite hot and
humid, and I was afraid what all the dust would do to ilford XP2, but it
seemed ok. Security at the Mexican airports forced me to X-ray my film
thrice (total), but no ill effects resulted I think. All shots were
processed and scanned by Costco, so I got Cd's, which makes it easy to post.
Costco was nice, I instructed them not to cut the film into strips so I
could do it myself, and they were fine with it. I'm going to pick up a
decent scanner soon, because I have a lot of HP5 negatives at home. It was a
wonderful short trip, the people were very kind, and one always regrets not
shooting more. Incidentally, all shots were taken with an M3 & tabbed 50mm
summicron.


Thank you for looking, any comments welcomed,
