The Basaltic Prisms of Santa María Regla are tall columnar joints of basalt rock near Huasca de Ocampo in the Mexican state of Hidalgo,[1] that line a ravine through which water runs from the San Antonio Dam. This ravine area was part of the Santa María Regla Hacienda and was first promoted by Alexander von Humboldt in 1803.[2]
The canyon walls, called the Barranca de Santa María Regla, are lined by polygonal columns between 30 and 50 metres (98 and 164 ft) high, with five or six sides each.[3] The basalt columns were created by the slow cooling of volcanic lava. The visible columns are backed by even more polygonal basalt columns. There are two waterfalls. The higher one has its water supplemented by diversions from nearby dams.[3] The lower one is called the Cascada de la Rosa.[3][4] The natural canyon has been modified by the addition of stairs, walkways and hanging bridges for easier access.[4]

Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de Dolores, or Our Lady of Sorrows Parish, in Dolores Hidalgo, Guanajuato, México.
Early on the morning of September 16, 1810, Father Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla summoned the largely Indian and mestizo congregation of his small Dolores parish church and urged them to take up arms and fight for Mexico’s independence from Spain. His El Grito de Dolores, or Cry of Dolores, which was spoken—not written—is commemorated on September 16 as Mexican Independence Day.

My first attempt at lightning photography; 68 shots and I got two keepers and this was the best of the two.
"Yace aquí el hidalgo fuerte
que a tanto extremo llegó
de valiente, que se advierte
que la muerte no triunfó
de su vida con su muerte.
Tuvo a todo el mundo en poco;
fue el espantajo y el coco
del mundo, en tal coyuntura,
que acreditó su ventura,
morir cuerdo y vivir loco."
¡Larga vida a Cervantes y a su hijo Don Quijote!
XXIII-IV-MMXVI.

Got all dolled up
Camera ready
In the Middle East
Lots of camels and sand
Met the Sheik
Here at the Ocean of Fire
Waiting on Hidalgo
To do his magic
And race against the best
Thoroughbred horses
Just to prove himself
With the long-distance
Horse-racing over the sands
And here I wait
Sighs…
He’s a bit late!

Interior of Guanajuato's Hidalgo Market seen from its second floor. The market is also known as "Gavira", the name of the old Plaza de Toros de Gavira razed to build the market.
Hidalgo is the main market of the city.
The market is a chaotic collection of market stalls selling a wide range of items plus a large selection of food vendors.
The building was initially designed as a railway station, by architects Ernesto Brunel and Antonio Rivas. The railway never arrived so it became the city market.
Construction was from 1905 to 16 September, 1910 and was inaugurated by President Porfirio Diaz as part of the celebrations of the centenary of Mexican independence.
The building is 70 metres long by 35 metres wide. Most of the building is made of iron and its floor plan is in the shape of a letter T.
