VERY nice, Gringo. BTW - do you know where the term gringo came from?
"He not busy being born is busy dying." Bob Dylan
"The more ambiguous the photograph is, the better it is..." Leonard Freed
Re: Gringo - my interpretation is a play on the word grin as in Dgrin
I gather it's also defined as "a person from an English-speaking country - used as a derogatory term by Latin Americans" :uhoh:uhoh:uhoh

@Syncopation Excellent pic!! Loved the quote in your signature. It truly defines passion of every photographer in the world.
Not just any English speaking country... its the USA, in the case of Mexico, when at war with the US, the US soldiers whore Green uniforms, and since the mexicans where trying to get rid of them they shouted out Green GO! Green GO! Green GO Home!!! that is were gringo came from... or so I have heard.
When I lived in Brasil, they seemed to call any stranger gringo, including myself...
Nice Image by the way,
thanks for sharing.
