A picture of a dog using Orthochromatic film. This dog was particularly quiet, so I was able to take my time to compose and take the picture. I wanted to take it because I was using Ortho film and I saw some good contrast in the background.

Along the highways of my Mexican home state you can find some of these "statues" of cows, which it can be a little surrealist in the middle of nowhere. This cow was in a road to a private ranch, so I had to stop the car and walk to get this image, which I like almost immediately when I saw it.

Bronze

A candid picture of a man that I was able to take while a regional dance was happening. I just like his outfit and the way that his shadow appears behind him, which in my mind is his inner cowboy or his past as a great cowboy.

The shadow of a Cowboy

A serie that I was able to make after going to several lowrider events, so I could gain the trust of their members. I want to transmit how the lowrider life is a way of living that originates from within the same family, and it's not a fashion trend. It is unique and it has a very special heart.
