Gutsy for sure. In Mexico gays are persecuted in the most violent ways. There are some "safe havens", mainly tourist spots but off the beaten track these guys would be taking their lives in their hands. Great shot BTW. Are these locals or tourists?
They're locals. Mexico City as a whole is very welcoming to all people, including gay folks. I've seen in multiple locations signs that indicate the establishment does not discriminate on the basis of the usual litany of reasons, including sexual orientation. I've also seen many instances of gay couples holding hands in public, but those were mostly upscale/touristy areas. There certainly are parts of town where I would NOT be affectionate with a boyfriend.
@HiHoSilver Yes- it gives you all the more potential to tell a story across the frame, because you have that left-right dynamic to play with, and room to have "action" play out in a scene.
