From this weekend while roaming downtown, Mexico City. A cliché moment, perhaps, but nonetheless meaningful to human experience. Margaret Meade once stated that "one of the oldest human needs is having someone to wonder where you are when you don't come home at night." It's so true, so descriptive --in part-- of the human condition.

Chasing light and shadows in Mexico City's historic downtown area. A lot has changed since I first came to know this area. I worked here for five years. Though I don't commute into the area everyday as I did then, much of my photography is executed in this very exciting niche of this vast urban space.

Read MoreSeeing...
This image was made in 2011 when I was exploring what seeing from difference perspectives does to a composition. In the process I was attempting to break a rut in creativity by shooting outside my comfort zone. This one involved protestors marching towards me while I set the DSLR on the floor.
Seeing is all about perspective and relative to where you stand. Two people can't see the same object from where they stand if one of them has his eyes closed or something obstructing their vision from a given angle.

Read MoreAll Dressed Up And Nowhere To Go
All dressed up and nowhere to go. This describes pretty much how I see Mexico's economy these days after all the energy the Mexican government put into reforms that nonetheless represented little in eventual benefit to the people of Mexico. Worse still, Mexico has been feverishly fighting a stronger US Dollar that has been battering the Mexican Peso left and right as global investors hedge against loss in gold and stronger currencies like the aforementioned greenback. Government revenue is also down as the price of oil --representing over 35% of government income-- stays low, part of the reason why President Enrique Peña Nieto stated early this month Mexico would have to tighten its belt into 2016.
