    • Image Description: Saturday, a day i hadn't dedicated yet to photgraph strangers. Originally i was having coffee with a friend, but she didn't show up. Smart me that i decided to carry my camera that day. Once calmed the anger of being stood up i went to the main plaza looking for volunteers for the project. I came across a huge crowd which i'm not used to, it was going to be complicated to find some one that stand out from that many people. Then i saw them, their jerseys caught my attention. Erick wasn't willing to cooperate, he said to photograph Osawldo only because he was the handsome one. I explained to him that i approached beacuse they were uniformed and finally he agreed. I asked if Puebla would win that day, with a not very encouraging tone they said hopefully, the good thing for them that day La Franja beat 4-1 the tournament leader. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Sábado, un día que no había dedicado a fotografiar desconocidos. Originalmente iba a verme con una amiga para tomar café, pero no llegó. Inteligente yo que cargué mi cámara. Una vez calmado el enojo de haber sido plantado, fuí al zócalo a buscar voluntarios para el proyecto. Me tope con una enorme multitud a la que normalmente no estoy acostumbrado, iba a estar complicado encontrar a alguien que sobresaliera de entre tanta gente. Entonces los vi a ellos, sus playeras me llamaron la atención. Erick no quería cooperar, me dijo que mejor fotografiara a Oswaldo por que él era el carita. Le expliqué que me acerqué porque los vi uniformados y final accedió. Les pregunté si ganaba Puebla ganaba ese día, con un tono poco esperanzador me dijeron que ojalá, lo bueno para ellos es que ese día La Franja le ganó 4-1 al lider del torneo.

    • Image Description: I still was in the main plaza wirtting down the important things of my conversation with Ángel, i saw these 3 walking by and thought what was that. I stopped writting and catch up to photograph them. When i was explaining the project González didn't let me finish and said that they were not strangers, they were mexicans. I apologized, didn't saw her mustache. Once clarified the point i had to photograph people i didn't know, asked where their parents are from (because i see them and i imagine that their parents aren't from any place near), they are Chinese, González said. The 3 of them are college students that are in Mexico to learn spanish, which is really surprising because they spoke it very well, especially Rodríguez, you couldn't notice her foreign accent. It was fun to talk with them, they made my afternoon. -------------------------------------------------------------- Seguía en el zócalo y mientras escribía lo importante de mi conversación con Ángel, los vi pasar a ellos 3 y pensé qué fue eso. Termine de escribir y los alcancé para fotgrafiarlos. Cuando les hablé del proyecto González no me dejo acabar y dijo que ellos no eran extraños, ellos eran mexicanos. Me disculpe, no había visto su bigote. Una vez aclarado el punto de que tenía que fotografiar personas que no conociera, pregunte de dónde eran sus padres (porque los veo y me imagino que sus padres no son de por aquí cerca) son chinos dijo González. Los 3 son estudiantes universitarios que están en México para aprender español, que la verdad me sorprende porque lo hablaban muy bien, en especial Rodríguez, no se le notaba el acento extranjero. Fue divertido hablar con ellos, me hicieron la tarde. This picture is #47 in my 100 strangers project.
