I've been to Pachuca

Written By Alex Coghe

These days I was traveling. I visited Pachuca and Tulancingo, in the state of Hidalgo. I was in Acaxochitlán, a mountain community not far from Tulancingo. Expect to see many photos but in the meantime:

First Cash. Hidalgo, 2022. Alex Coghe

What you see is just a preview. Most of the photos show humanity. Anyway I am happy with this because it reminds me of Stephen Shore. The journey was short, only three days. But intense both humanly and photographically.

I found myself cooking four types of pasta for 70 people. I met many beautiful people who welcomed me beautifully. It wasn’t the first and certainly not the last time that I will go. I took some amazing photos but more than that was discovering so many really great things on this trip. Also of myself as a photographer.

I only brought the Canon with the 24mm with me. With the iPhone and the action camera I feel like I'm covered. With IPhone i am making a project.

More to come, guys…
