retake > I was drawn to the beams of light from the overhead skylight and the light from the various doors to the rear and the sides. This was an old monastery in Antigua, Guatemala.
retake > This was taken in a monastery in Antigua, Guatemala, that was nearly 500 years old. the well-worn steps and strong light source make me think of resurrection, for some reason. Mamiya RZ-67. 1991.
retake > This was taken in a monastery in Antigua, Guatemala, that was nearly 500 years old (see the earthquake damage repair in the patterns in the plaster). The light patterns are obviously the unique feature here. Mamiya RZ-67. 1991.
retake > This was taken in a monastery in Antigua, Guatemala, that was nearly 500 years old (see the earthquake damage repair in the patterns in the plaster). I didn't notice the mop until I was finished. Duh. What I do like about the image, though, is that it violates a basic tenet of photography: don't put a huge pillar in the middle foreground.

It was taken in a monastery in Antigua, Guatemala, that was nearly 500 years old (see the earthquake damage repair in the patterns in the plaster). Mamiya RZ-67. 1991.
retake > These dugout canoes were all ready for a morning fishing run, on the edges of Lake Atitlán, otherwise known as Panajachel. Aldous Huxley called this one of the most beautiful places in the world, and I'd have to agree. I spent a week paddling around the perimeter of this amazing place. I just happened upon this beach after renting a jeep and exploring. This effect was created with the "duplex" filter within Color Efex Pro. Mamiya RZ-67. 1991.
retake > These are two of many volcanoes on the edges of Lake Atitlán. Aldous Huxley called this one of the most beautiful places in the world, and I'd have to agree. I spent a week paddling around the perimeter of this amazing place. I just happened upon this view after renting a jeep and exploring. It's taken from the road that descends to Panajachel. Mamiya RZ-67. 1991.
