zaragoza (is where I live)

It has come to my attention that, even though I have hundreds of photos of other cities, I barely have any of the one I live in. I see Zaragoza through the eyes of someone who’s had too much of it, someone who’s been there for too long. I am now trying to see it differently, and have started to take a little film camera around with me.

Kodak film + bad photo place = bad photos.
churros
biscuits
old glass
riot kids
uncensored books
vinyl

    >Those cakes look lush. Not sure the uncensored bookshop is my kinda place though…

    >Sarah: It's not really a bookshop, it's street art by a French group of street art artists (I feel like I'm using the word art too much) on an abandoned store front.

    >I struggle with the same thing all the time. After a while the place you live just seems so boring.. but carrying a camera around does help you find little things to appreciate about it more I suppose.

    I like your decision to carry the small camera : ) I can't wait to see more photos!
