Dance, love and leisure: Saturday afternoon at Parque México // CDMX, February 2024

This might be my favourite series I’ll publish about my trip to Mexico city. Ok, to be honest I could probably write that about every series I’ll publish from that magical week, but there’s something that feels very much like my material about people gathering on a Saturday afternoon to get together, to just be, to love, and to indulge in leisure with wild abandon.

The square images below were shot on Kentmere 400 with the Yashica Mat EM, and there’s one lone image from my Holga 120GFN on Kodak Portra 160 (pushed on stop, as per my usual MO), and a few snaps on Kodak ColorPlus 200 with a Minolta Point&Shoot with a wide angle lens.
