Coyoacán is one of Mexico City's most colourful neighborhoods and Photo Walk Nº 73 was a fun walk around the Santa Caterina area focussing first and foremost on colour.To start off, we had a brief tutorial on how to use colour to make stronger images. This included a range of concepts such as the characteristics of warm and cool colours, brightness and intensity and how just a small spot of bright colour in a rather neutral scene will attract the viewer's eye. Then we wandered around the area, finding out about the history and some curiosities as well as photographing colour in general.We also had fun photographing brightly-coloured doors and walls plus some vibrant street art.Finally, some of us continued on to the Mercado de Coyoacán to savour some tostadas before heading home. One thing is sure... after this photo walk, we have begun "seeing" colour in a whole new way!
