One thing I had hoped to get a photo of but could not figure out how to be discreet enough was street vendors. There are lots of people on the streets (especially near malls) with blankets spread on the ground displaying some merchandise. Some people sell cheap jewelry, some clothes, some even sell DVDs. I will continue to try to get a photo of that, because that is one thing I definitely did not see before coming to Santiago.

Street life
This is my attempt at photographing street life in Providencia. I tried to be discreet so that people wouldn't get mad at me for taking their photo, so that is why some of the angles are a bit odd. Unfortunately I am currently unable to correctly show vertical shots properly, so those are horizontal.
Near Manuel Montt metro station. I'm not sure how well you can see it, but that little building is actually a flower stand.
Church near my apartment. Nuestra Senora de la Divina Providencia (Our Lady of Divine Providence).
People walking down the street near Pedro de Valdivia metro stop.
Dos Caracoles mall. It consists of two spiral staircases full of little shops. (This one was supposed to be vertical.)
