Borda Garden - 3 December 2025

When I visited the Borda Garden in Cuernavaca in the State of Morelos, Mexico for the second time in my lifethis past December 3 I was overwhelmed by its architecture that featured the colours white and red. Had its architect been the renowned but now dead Luís Barragán the architecture would have been as simple but in very bright shades of yellow and green. The blue and whites made my visit a restful one while I was at the same time taking many pictures.

In my walk I noticed a blue water bottle. I never really photograph objects as I am a portrait photographer. But I knew that I had to take the photograph.

There is something about Mexico that always puts me in pleasant but uncertain and surprising territory. This was one of them.

A Persistence of Enthusiasm
