no phone, no internet ...

I went away for a few days

Cell phones didn't work, forgot the battery charger of my computer, good thing the ipod could be charged on the car .... we depend so much on electronic stuff

Yes I had the charger for my cameras batteries

Need to catch up on work

In the mean time here is how this place looked in the mornings


One day I went for a run and found this view, came back the next day with my camera


The lake "Santa Maria del Oro" is at a volcano crater

Will post more later

Looks like a very nice place to spend a few days......

Wow, incredible shots there Armando.

Nothing wrong with 'getting away.' I think to do your best work, this is critical.

I have two batteries for my Nikon D700. I could probably do an entire week-long trip w/o a charger.

I really like the deep, rich green field.

VERY nice work!

The first couple are amazing.

Oh, and how did you get that slightly 'burnt' look on the black and white photo's edges? Is it an easy procedure?

Awesome job.

What a beautiful place.

Just a click away, it is a nifty little trick I just found on silver efex pro (b&w converter)

Awesome job.

What a beautiful place.

Thanks Liban
