Oaxaca Journal--Part 2

Cover of my journal---portrait is one I did from a photo I found online and can't find again to give photo credit.  I'm sorry!

I always try to incorporate a map of where I traveled into my travel journal.  I love maps and any excuse to use one is leaped on.

Detail of a painting my Miguel Covarrubias is in the bottom right corner in the above photo.  One of our painting assignments was to do a painting of our own based on Sr. Covarubias' work.

The very graphic Day of the Dead lady in the above photo was from a free handout that was everywhere in Oaxaca.  I loved this graphic and was thrilled when I discovered that inside the booklet was a big, fold-out poster with both Frida Kahlo and Coco Channel by artist Bradley Theodore.   I love this poster!

I didn't post photos of the pages where I just inserted printouts from the trip and other written material I wanted to keep.  Not very interesting to look at, but good reading and things I want to keep for reference.

This journal was fun to do!  Since I started shooting with a Nikon D7100 I can no longer use my little travel-friendly Zinc printers, as the Nikon digital files are too large for these small printers to use.  Sad, but I just pick the photos I want to insert later and make note of them in the journal as I am working on it on the trip and add the printed-at-home-after-returning photos later.  Cumbersome maybe, but effective.
