Buenos Aires in bits and bites
When you live in such a huge city, it´s hard to feel like you´ve got a good grip on it since there´s no way to know it all. And sometimes that hugeness can make you block out your surroundings and not pay attention to the little bits of beauty that can be found all around if only you keep your eyes open.
And having grown up in the suburbs, there´s just so much I have left to discover. So I decided to make an effort to explore more and to drag my camera everywhere so I could capture it.
Which is why I´m planning to make this a weekly, bi-weekly or at least a monthly series, so those of you abroad can get to know the city a bit more along with me, and those of you who live here or have already visited can see it under a different light. Hope you like it!

Shrine to all things graffiti (check out the monkeys above the columns!)

Art in the park (in Plaza Armenia, between Costa Rica and Armenia)

I live in Washington D.C. and want to visit BA sometime. Thank you for sharing your beautiful city. Your pictures are so clear and sharp. Mind telling me what kind of camera you used?
