Riding the funicular up to the top of Hormiguera hill in Guanajuato will provide you with these incredible views, but it’s the long walk down through narrow cobblestone callejones (alleyways) that’s just as fascinating. There’s no doubt, it’s a paradise for photographers and I could spend days meandering these intricate callejones to capture the color, the textures, the people, the details of every day life. Oh, and talk about wabi-sabi…oh my!
Coming up…some different takes on San Miguel de Allende, Mexico…

I have to tell you Robin, I may not be a connoisseur in photography, but your photos are the best I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen other peoples blogs, magazines, books, galleries, etc. but you capture the world, people, places, things with such a unique perspective that evokes so many emotions, it’s mind-blowing. You truly have a great gift and I’m so grateful you are so generous to share it.
XOXO

Do you think student #1 on the left with the sunglasses would be interested in being an exchange student? There are so many colleges right here in NC.
