Saturday Photo Hunting




Keyhole Pictures this week's theme is AN ACTION SHOT.

While in Malpica Mexico on Tuesday I was "selected" by our tour guide to "assist" Jorge the tile maker.

The tiles are made from sand, cement and water. The clay/mud mixture is put in these shapes and the designs are created using the eraser end of a pencil. This is me in action!.






Jorge then uses a hand turned machine to "squeeze" the water out and then the tile is left to dry for 17 hours. This is my tile, I would have bought it but it wasn't dry enough.
