Museo Nacional de Arte / MUNAL / National Museum of Art, Mexico City

I have a hard time with black and white. The meter on my Revueflex is pretty reliable, yet my exposure is all over the place. Scans from the lab had nice sharp contrast and acutance, but were so pixellated I had to rescan at home, where they came out completely different. These are all Flic Film's respooled Foma 100, but look way too soft and light compared to the same film shot by others. Still learning I guess...

Mexico City

Country/Region: Mexico
Mexico City

Mexico City is one of those places that you’ll visit and want to go back as soon as you leave. The spirit of the city is unlike anywhere – it has a rich cultural history, combined with an amazingly colorful art scene, and some of the best food in the world. Formerly Tenochtitlan, capital of the Aztec empire, it is the oldest capital city in the world, and sits on a former lake bed. Make sure you brush up on the Spanish basics and respect all the languages spoken in the city, because a little goes a long way. Try EVERYTHING, from spicy street food to walking through ancient cities, and of course, bring your Lomography film and camera with you.
