Description .

I took this photo on a weekend trip to Guatemala.

My friends took me to the highlands of lake 'Atitlan', the volcano towering in the background is called 'San Lucas', it rises 10,350 ft above the sea level !...is a breathtaking place !!!!



I had been busy hiking, looking for an angle,....when I realized the best shot was right where we left the car !...I had been looking,...not 'seeing' !

Most of my photos that have people in them, are magic moments caught unplaned !

I don't have any models or the knowledge to instruct people how to pose for me.

.....Sometimes I'm just lucky the world arranges itself in front of the camera !

that evening the sky seemed like a mirage !

heY bernie...

Great description that went along with a great shot!! The beauty and wonder of nature and photography, yeah? The amazing thing of how everything just arranges itself for you...You're just so lucky! And you've got a great eye for magnificent shots as well!!!

I love the relaxed pose of your model/friend..It seems to me that she's just chilling out, enjoying and taking in all of the beauty that is in front of her...

Thank you for sharing such a great capture with us...

deludedchild [2003-07-12 09:03:23 +0000 UTC]

yup, the best shots are usually the ones that have been unplaned and that make itself up in front of your camera, like actors in front of a Director's camera..
