12:34 / Just me, RocĂ­o, photographing my life away <3 Your support is appreciated; please consider buying one of my prints.
Woke up feeling kind of melancholic or something related. It might have been that I slept too much, don&#8217;t know. Finally decided to go to the gym and take some pictures afterward, but when the time came, I didn&#8217;t know where to shoot; I hate when this happens because it makes me feel kind of depressed and that didn&#8217;t help the early feeling. I planned to shoot first in B town and then in Matamoros, but driving didn&#8217;t help. So, on my way back to Moros, I saw the train was crossing and thought that it could be a good idea to shoot around this; I have always wanted to do this, but, somehow, I don&#8217;t want to do it alone, I need companion, and I haven&#8217;t found the person who could take the time to do so, especially to go shoot that part of the railroad that attracts me so much. Anyway, I found a place to park my car and walked a block to get near the railroad. I was a bit scared since it was dark already and I am such a paranoid. The fear increased when a man stood right beside me; at first, I thought he was going to cross the street, but never did, it took me a while to realize I was right next to the bus stop, so I calmed down. Well, not really, I just didn&#8217;t feel like he was going to attack me or something, but I can&#8217;t really concentrate when strangers watch me photographing, and this time I could feel people staring at me, those who were driving by. I felt I was done with that part of the road and crossed where the railroad is and shoot for a while. And those were about 20 minutes of my life.
I shot in film and last time I shot in digital was last month, during my cousin&#8217;s birthday party.
