| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
| Tlacotalpan, Veracruz, is located by the Papaloapan River some 25 miles from the Gulf of Mexico. For many years, Tlacotalpan was one of the most important trading ports for sugar. Then, at the outset of the 20th Century, the main rail line was built many miles away and this wonderful tropical town was forgotten. As a result, Tlacotalpan, now a World Heritage Site, was kept in a time capsule, with its streets lined with impossibly colored porticos seating by the majestic Papaloapan. |

Great rhytm, perspective and colours. And great cropping. All is great. Regards T.
Bien vu avec ce cadrage, tu as réussi a mettre en évidance une formidable richesse visuelle d'un élément de cette ville.
Magnifique détail d'architecture.
