After shooting a particular assignment yesterday, I’ve realized I should get a Spanish textbook and brush up on some intermediate vocabulary and grammar. I was making pictures at the only supermarket in York City — which had just had its grand opening in the morning — and had to speak or know some amount of Spanish to communicate with the people in my pictures.
Here’s what ran on today’s front page:

And here’s a photo that didn’t run / that I didn’t turn in, but I like it anyway:
