A draft

My first attempt at writing the anecdotes for my photo journal.

These are just two of 24 first drafts. I will continue to post some entries periodically as part of my drafting process. There is certainly a long road ahead in terms of a final product but I am excited to begin bringing this photo book to fruition.

The market lends itself as a place of both work and recreation. As these two women enjoy their morning café, the cocinera behind the counter conducts a taste test--a ubiquitous and time honored method of quality control.
