Foto Fridays
About 6 months ago I found myself working all the time without any type of outlet to challenge my mind in a different direction. With the advice of a really, really, good IMB photographer, I invested in a Nikon D80 SLR camera and a few other accessories and have begun my journey into the world of capturing, hopefully interesting images as I travel in our region and maybe some from the U.S.
My first entry is a shot of two indigenous ladies selling their handcrafts at a street market in Antigua, Guatemala. Guatemala is undoubtedly one of the most colorful countries in Latin America. To view a larger image, click on the photograph.
Guatemala has 23 indigenous people groups representing over 50 dialectical differences in language. Most do not know that for over 50% of the population, Spanish is not their first or heart language.



*sigh* so homesick.
You're getting really good, Dad!
