Foto Flashback: Vietnamese Monk
I was just browsing through my Flickr account and musing over the collection of photos I’ve managed to gather throughout my years of travel… which led me to a thought: why not start regularly posting a random photo from the past? Hence the birth of Foto Flashback. This photo is a portrait of a Vietnamese [...]
Urban Funk Photography in KC
I caught up with a couple friends in Kansas City yesterday. We all ventured out in the frigid winter air to take some photos around downtown KC… Click here to see the entire photo set.
Spotting the Swiss in Guate
I was camped out at La Esquina completely absorbed in working on my new project, www.arteantigua.com, when Yves Maurer‘s remarks could no longer be ignored.

Humbling Photography
Phil Borges has published “Enduring Spirit,” a photography book commissioned by Amnesty International. I highly suggest you check out his work… The creative photo montages of Tom Chambers are also quite stunning:

Three volcanoes – Fuego, Agua and Acatenango – loom around the colonial streets of La Antigua like protective guardians. Sometimes the summits of the volcanoes are [...]
Freshwater Pools at El Pilar
As I’ve started to get into my groove here in La Antigua Guatemala, I’ve began to run again. I’m hoping to become disciplined enough to start training for a marathon again. That’s difficult in this socially non-stop Latin hot spot though. Anyway, one of the lesser known gems of La Antigua is Finca El Pilar [...]

The series, completed by me, began Thursday of this week and will continue through Thursday of next week. Thanks to Rudy Giron of ADP and Pascu Robredo of Antigua Canopy Tours I was able to enjoy the treetop “flying” experience for [...]
