Masses = Mexico City

Posted by Luis A. De Jesus R. (Mexico City, Mexico) on 12 November 2008 in Cityscape & Urban.

Mexico City is all about people. Think 29 million plus making it what might be the most densely and populated city of the Americas.

Benoit Darrieux from Clermont Ferrand, France

Splendid shot. The comment reflects perfectly your pic. I also like the colors, the contrast between the buildings, and "the life" of your picture. Thanks

@DarkElf: It was near mid-day which lit this street pretty well all the way up. Thanks for your comment and for the visit.

Wonderful shot that really conveys both the people and the city. For some reason I loved that LatinoAmericano building when I was in DF... rouses the same kind of feelings as the Empire State building in NYC

@onewayphoto / Mark: I've been to the top of the LatinoAmericano only once. It can really provide an awesome view of the city on a clear day. I know what you mean about it's height; as a New Yorker I too have always been impressed by how such edifices stick out against the urban landscape, especially in a city like Mexico in which these are so rare. Thanks for dropping by --glad you liked this image. Cheers!

That's amazing, there's only 4 million in my whole country. Really great shot, Luis.
Was this a special occasion of some sort? Everybody you can see clearly is smiling... :)
