La Reforma

These are the remains of the first building you come to at the ruin of La Reforma. The light was gorgeous and it was a very special moment shooting this image.

 

At the end of November, I took my third trip to Mexico to photograph Mayan ruins. I visited a number of ruins not open to the public, overgrown and hidden in the jungle, in order to continue working on my infrared images of Mayan Ruins. Many people think that the large ruins (Chichen Itza, Uxmal, Labna, Sayil, etc.) comprise the totality of Mayan civilization in the Yucatan, but there are literally hundreds of smaller or satellite cities spread throughout Yucatan and Campeche. I am so drawn to these beautiful, sometimes remote, ruins, partially overgrown, but still standing after more than a thousand years.

 

If you'd like to read about this trip, I have a blog post about it that you might enjoy.
