Ola Gente!

I am going to be spending a week in Mexico City, starting Saturday night. Mostly work, but I will have sunday morning, sunday night, and probably monday free as well. Then only work work work.

Sunday afternoon I have blocked out for a bullfight.

Sunday Morning I will be in the city.

I was thinking of going outside the DF on mnday, but I don't knwo where.


So I have a few questions- is anybody familiar with the DF? Or the surrounding area? I want to know good places to shoot- not Zocalo and Templo Mayor (I've done that already) but some crazy, strange, not often visited, or out of the way kind of stuff.

Also, some advice for the bullfight.

Should I get Sun or shade seats?

I am trying to decide between using a Canon 35-135 USM or my 300mm Orestegor (fixed). I do't want to swap lenses a lot, because I would imagine the ring will be dusty. What's better here, a zoom or a fixed tele?


Thanks for any info.

    Sorry I can't help.
    Just thought I would bump in case you get some last minute replies.
    I hope you trip goes well.
