 All photographs taken between March 5 and 10, 2015. Many of these were taken while on two of the excellent free walking tours available in the city – highly recommended. I used an old Pentax P30T camera with Fuji and Kodak ISO 200 film. Buenos Aires is a stunning city to visit and five days is enough to get a taste and feel for it, but there is so much more to see. Therefore a second visited is definitely in the pipeline, that’s for sure. Fortunately, for the moment,  I am not far away.
