In Mexico City's Bosque de Chapultepec.
"Chapultepec, more commonly called the "Bosque de Chapultepec" (Chapultepec Forest) in Mexico City, one of the largest city parks in the Western Hemisphere, measuring in total just over 686 hectares (1,695 acres). Centered on a rock formation called Chapultepec Hill, one of the park's main functions is to be an ecological space in the vast megalopolis. It is considered the first and most important of Mexico City's "lungs", with trees that replenish oxygen to the Valley of Mexico. The park area has been inhabited and held as special since the Pre-Columbian era, when it became a retreat for Aztec rulers. In the colonial period, Chapultepec Castle would be built here, eventually becoming the official residence of Mexican heads of state. It would remain such until 1940, when it was moved to another part of the park called Los Pinos. Today, the park is divided into three sections, with the first section being the oldest and most visited. This section contains most of the park's attractions including its zoo, the Museum of Anthropology, the Rufino Tamayo Museum, and more. It receives an estimated 15 million visitors per year."

We arrived in Mexico City this afternoon and did some wandering around after getting settled in. I figured it was a good time to take a shot for this week’s theme of “In the Style of Brassaï” as he did a lot of night street photography in Paris so I figured night street photography in Mexico City was as close as I’m going to get this week. Despite it being past 11pm, there were a couple of vendors outside this corner store and it was quite busy. I wasn’t originally planning on taking a photo but decided to randomly and it turned out to be pretty interesting.
