High quality pictures from my late afternoon trip to Santuario de Guadalupe as storm clouds rolled in. An adobe church in Santa Fe, New Mexico, over 200 years old it holds much historic and religious significance, and is the oldest shrine to Our Lady of Guadalupe.
Tulum, the 800+ year old Mayan ruins sit atop 40 foot cliffs on the edge of the Caribbean sea. Today’s photo of the week is of the breathtaking beach sitting just a few feet from those ruins.
Photos from my visit to Santa Fe’s Loretto Chapel. Built in 1878 and featuring the famous unusual helix shaped spiral staircase, the subject of so much mystery and allure a movie was made about it.
A spiny lizard sunbathes on the side of a rock. Picture taken in Southwest New Mexico. While hiking at the Gila Cliff Dwellings I stumbled across multiple lizards, their scales so spiky I found them to be very unique and interesting.
Photos from my visit to the Cathedral Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi, more commonly known as the St. Francis Cathedral church. It is located in downtown Santa Fe, New Mexico. With hundreds of years of history it’s a can’t miss on your visit to the city. It’s not Santa Fe’s only well known and culturally significant church either. More to come!
This week’s picture is of Akumal beach, south of Cancun and Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. Home of world class scuba diving, snorkeling and endangered Green Sea Turtles.
Serenity at the 3.5 acre Japanese Friendship Garden located in Phoenix, Arizona. Video of me feeding fish in the Koi pond. Featuring a 12 ft waterfall, tea house and much more.
A Golden-mantled Ground Squirrel poses for me on one of the lookout points during my day-trip to Bryce Canyon National Park.
The first stop on my New Mexico road trip was the Gila Cliff Dwellings National Monument. The main attractions here are the well preserved dwellings perched high up the side of a cliff; inside natural caves once lived in by the native Mogollon peoples over 700 years ago.
