Varnishing water – Mexico
Photographer’s comment: “Water in all its forms –fog, rain, lagoon- populates and varnishes this landscape in central Mexico. A mix of land uses, from forestry to tourism to agriculture, has allowed the smallholders who live and work around the Ojo de la gavia lagoon in the State of Mexico, Mexico, to sustain high productivity and low deforestation and forest degradation. It has also made it possible to keep water running at a manageable pace to this small lake and to the nearby Valle de Bravo dam, from which Mexico City takes a substantial part of its drinking water.“
