This is Lupe.
He's a street photographer and fortune teller in Nuevo Progreso, Mexico. We met at a taco cart when he offered to take my photo and tell me my fortune. How could I say no?!
After my reading and photo, we took a few steps away to this metal gate that perfectly matched his shirt and snapped this portrait.
Best tacos I've had in years.
Oh, the reading was a bargain: lucky numbers, lifespan, health warnings, and aura colors (I’m apparently “King of all the colors,” so I’ve got that going for me). And I’m to start wearing a special gemstone for some reason. ;)
Mexico's Louis Mendes?
I wish... my portrait was a blur. He dragged the shutter after the flash.
Ouch, sorry about that :(
lol no big deal... one look at the state of that camera kit and I knew it was a gamble. :D
