Who said Mexicans were poor…?? Click on the photos for a larger view.
This is a view from the back of a classic Mercedes Benz car, cruising one of the narrow downhill streets in Guanajuato, Mexico. Well, who said the Mexicans were poor?
I actually saw them coming from the top. It was a little unusual to see such a car going down on those narrow streets. They were also holding an umbrella to protect them from the sun. I cheap substitute for a real convertible top? Nevertheless, Mexicans are creative 🙂
The image with the front view of the people is not for sale (other than for editorial purpose). However the photo taken from the back, is available as art print in Fine Art America – my Guanajuato gallery.
For the fun of the WP challenges, I posted it to:

Wonderful colors and lighting. Thanks for joining the challenge!
Thank you so much Nancy! 🙂
What a picturesque place, and great images. As usual, I love your compositions. Great eye!
I love that they are using a parasol. It adds a cute quirky touch to a lovely ride in a classic car
Indeed 🙂 Thank you for the comment!
Nice car. A real classic. I noticed California plates!
Thank you Fandalgo for the comment. Many cars in Mexico have California plates for some unknown reason to me…
Sure don’t expect to see that car on those streets. Thanks so much for joining in.
