Black and white pictures usually evoke a feeling of nostalgia and a fascination for what's about to be lost forever or is already lost or damaged.

The following pictures were all taken during a walk around my hometown, Panama City. I like to explore the city on foot with my camera, because it gives me the chance to see details I otherwise wouldn't have noticed or scenes I would have never witnessed. It's all important when we try to collect the little pieces that make up the essence of a place and help put together a part of the memoirs of a society during a specific time or moment.
