Summer around the Peninsula

Street:

    I got up at 5am to avoid the vendors and visitors that cover the streets of San Cristobal at around 9am. This was shot with the intention of portraying the mysticism of the picturesque typical streets.



Palenque:

    This is one of the few archeological sites whose surroundings remain somewhat intact, all of the other sites have been cleared and the roads have been paved for the visitors to come and go without leaving their cemented realities.



Chichen:

    Have you ever had a view of the pyramid with no people around? The shot shows both sides of the story, the pyramid unrestored and the pyramid as they speculate it to have been.



Mayan Girl:

    I was amazed by how pretty the Mayan people are while we were traveling around the Yucatan Peninsula.



Sister:

    This is the little girl’s sister…you can still tell she’s not amused by the fact that I’m taking pictures of them.
