Houses, Mexico

A few years ago when I was working as a helicopter pilot for a local radio station, we were required to fly around all of Mexico City chasing news and traffic. I remember flying up to the highway that connects Mexico City with the neighboring state of Puebla, and on my way back this housing complex that seemed to go on forever caught my attention. I decided to circle around to observe from up close what I later found out was the recently built San Buenaventura complex, which is located in Ixtapaluca, on the eastern outskirts of Mexico City.
The exceptional afternoon sun reflecting those thousands of recently painted small homes just looked so beautiful, and the lower I flew the better the angle, so I just got out my camera, opened the sliding window on my Bell helicopter, and snapped a couple of shots.
几年前，我是当地无线电台的直升机飞行员，我们在墨西哥城飞行追踪报道新闻与交通状况。我记得当时飞行在墨西哥城与普埃布拉（墨西哥中东部州）的边境上空，看到这片好像飞不完的房屋设施。我决定多绕几圈近距离观察一下，接着知道了这是位于墨西哥城东郊的Ixtapaluca市，最近正在建造圣布埃纳文图拉的综合设施。
这个不同寻常的下午，这些房屋在太阳的照射下看起来如此美丽，我降低了角度，打开贝尔直升机的推拉窗，伸出相机，拍了几个镜头。
