Photo of the Week 2024-06-17

 

I've been thinking back, June 15, 2018, my last day of "work", by my choice, on my terms I closed the book on a 35 year career ... and retired.

The next book/chapter began with a "surprise" trip to Guatemala with I blogged about at the time. Now as I look back through my image library from that trip, great memories are rekindled. It's wonderful to have those images to spark the memories and I do so enjoy reminiscing, recalling the adventure and good times.

Although I posted a number of images shortly after returning, this one remained on a hard drive, processed, untitled, unpublished ...

' shower taps '

Though the peeling paint texture was added in post, I'm reminded of the quasi outdoor shower at the lodge in the Guatemalan hills ... and the refreshing cold showers that provided relief from the heat and humidity.

Photo of the Week 2018-07-02

So much to see and photograph in Guatemala, but with only a week with my son, I wanted to enjoy the time with him rater than spending all the time looking through the viewfinder ...

Antigua in the AM

... that said, I did take a camera suitable for packing light in a single carry-on sized backpack that was my luggage for the week.

6 AM waiting for the shuttle bus to pick us up outside the hostel and take us to Pacaya for our volcano hike, I pulled out the P&S camera to capture some of the local street ... and of course a lone figure walked by as if on queue.

Another vintage / textured treatment for this one ... it's how it felt to me.
