Villa de Santiago, Take 2
Second shot of the church in Villa de Santiago. Different angle, different moment.
Chaos
It’s like a “where’s Wally/Waldo/Walter” for Eden. Can you find each character? Good job! (close up of a sculpture in the Museo del Ojo in Garcia, Nuevo, Leon – about 30 minutes from Monterrey)
And the buses just keep on coming
Downtown Monterrey. Yes, the city is filled with buses. Just stay out of their way…
Villa de Santiago, Nuevo Leon
Last weekend I took this photo of the church in Villa de Santiago, a little community about 30 minutes from where I live. In 2006 it was named a “pueblo mágico” (magic town) in recognition of its historic preservation.
Telling time
Today’s image is of a sundial located in the Macroplaza here in Monterrey. We discovered someone forgot to tell the sun to change it’s watch for Daylight Savings Time.
It all adds up
The Museo Metropolitano de Monterrey is one of the few museums here that let you take photos of the exhibitions. This is an image I shot on Saturday of an adding machine that is displayed with other office equipment from the turn of the century (and I am not referring to Y2K).
Atop the slide
A shot of Abraham (member of the previously mentioned fish escape prevention team) on the playground observing skateboarders in the distance.
Pigeons in the Pantheon
On Sunday afternoon we came across these four just hanging out at the top of a mausoleum in downtown Monterrey.
The mourner
This shot is from a cemetery (Panteón Dolores – which is literally translated as the pain cemetery) in Monterrey. Many of the statues, mausoleums, and tributes to the deceased are breathtaking.
Portrait of a grandmother
This is the second shot of a friend’s grandmother. You couldn’t ask for a better model. About 50 years ago she once owned one of the first movie theaters in Zacatecas, Mexico
