Photo: Chicken Bus

Walking the streets of Antigua, Guatemala at 6 am in April 2006, with my Holga. I was looking for a good cup of coffee. A newspaper vendor had taken up position in the corner, and the famous Chicken busses were rattling down the cobble-stoned streets -- so named because one can encounter quite a bit of livestock while riding them. Later, at the airport on my way home, I said to the security agent: "This is film, pelicula, don't xray, ok?" and he said: "Ok, ok, no problema signora" Then he took the bag and put it right through the x-ray machine. What was I to do at that point? But I kind of like the way the photo turned out.
