This week, I’ve included images from Central America and some other best sellers. As always you can find them all in the New Images Collection.
Little Boy Peeking was taken on a 3 week trip through Belize and Guatemala back in 1997. This boy poked his head out of his family’s booth at the local market and I was able to capture this moment just before he noticed me, smiled and stuck out his tongue.
I took Mesquite Flat Dune on my 1st (and only) trip to Death Valley. I’m looking forward to returning soon to explore more of the unlimited possibilities this National Park offers.
Another park with plenty to offer is Zion National Park in Utah which is where I took Maple Impression. Autumn is particularly spectacular.
Back in 2001 my wife Lisa and I were on a road trip through the Southwest and were fortunate enough to catch a rare Aurora Borealis display in Southern New Mexico while visiting friends in the small village of Las Placitas.
Mother and Daughters was taken on my Guatemala trip in 1997. It was a very quick “grab” shot but I love how the mother is holding a fully loaded basket hands free with a baby on her back (you can just make out the baby’s hand hanging down from the back of the sling), the older daughter has a bundle she’s balancing hands free, and the youngest has a smaller load and is using her hands to help stabilize. And, all 3 are almost perfectly in stride.
Spouting Horn is a well known blowhole near the town of Poipu on the southern coast of Kauai, Hawaii.
The colorful Painted Hills of John Day Fossil Beds National Monument were formed over 35 million years ago as the result of volcanic activity and sedimentation from this ancient floodplain.
Buttressed Tree, Heliconia, and Canopy and Moon were all taken in the pristine rainforest of the Bladen Nature Reserve in southern Belize where I had the unique opportunity to spend several days camping and photographing.
