Hitchin' a ride






Came across this fascinating project by Alejandro Cartagena on Lost At E Minor.  Car pooling is a common means for manual labourers to get around in Mexico.  I love how revelatory this series is about the way of life of these hardworking guys; the overhead perspective from the bridge or structure where these shots were taken adds a satisfying voyeuristic dimension.  Alejandro deservedly won the 2012 International Street Photography Award and this series has also been exhibited in Miami.  Alejandro Cartagena
