Category Archives: Yucatan In my last post, I shared Part One of my expedition through the Yucatan jungles of Mexico with a group of explorers who are huge aficionados of Maya ruins. As I mentioned in the post, our goal was to retrace and locate some of the Mayan ruins that were documented by the French explorer Michel Peissel in his 1963 book […] 
 I had the great pleasure of being part of an expedition through the Yucatan jungles of Mexico with a group of explorers who love searching for obscure Mayan ruins. They are all a modern day version of Indiana Jones, but with iPhones. Now, I will never claim to know as much about Mayan history as […]
 I never get tired of photographing beaches. I previously posted a photo from this night in Playacar. I have many more but this was one of my favorites. On this one, I really liked the striking moon and how it came down and brushed its light over the water. Click photo for a big surprise
 There was a bright full moon over the beach in Playacar, Mexico and I just had to stop and take some photos. The colors of the water are constantly shifting between different hues of blue & aqua. I played around with a long exposure not sure of what the result would be. I was hoping […]
 I was hanging out in the spectacular beaches of Akumal in the Mayan Riviera recently when these two lovely Argentinian girls passed by. I was busy taking photos of the clear blue Carribean waters and they were trying to take photos of themselves with their phone. Normally, people see me with all the camera gear […]
 I recently posted a recap of my adventure exploring the Mayan ruins of Coba. You can read all about it here. I had posted all the photos in black & white but here is one in full color. Whenever I process a photo, sometimes I’ll consider converting to black & white or sepia. Depends on […]

 I don’t know about you, but I am a beach person. And my favorite beaches are in the Riviera Maya area of Mexico. And my favorite beach there is in the town of Tulum. Most people are aware of Tulum for its famous Mayan ruins, but once they visit they keep coming back for the […]
 On the road between Tulum and Merida, in the Yucatan peninsula, are the Mayan ruins of Coba. It’s a long lonely road with miles and miles of dense jungle surrounding your venture. Along the way you will find small local towns where you can stop for a cold drink or a bite to eat, but […]
 Here is another photo from lovely Akumal bay in the Rivera Maya, Mexico. This is one of those lazy beaches where you can just pick out a palm tree and lay underneath it all day while being serenaded by the gentle waves. On this day, I walked around the whole bay stopping only to take […]
