Zihuatanejo (locally: [siwataˈneho]) Zihuatanejo, is the fourth-largest city in the Mexican state of Guerrero. Politically the city belongs to the municipality of Zihuatanejo de Azueta in the western part of Guerrero, but both are commonly referred to as Zihuatanejo. It is on the Pacific Coast, about 240 km northwest of Acapulco, and belongs to a section of the Mexican Pacific Coast known as the Costa Grande. This town has been developed as a tourist attraction along with the modern tourist resort of Ixtapa, 5 km away. However, Zihuatanejo has kept its traditional town feel. The town is located on a well-protected bay which is popular with private boat owners during the winter months

El corredor keniano Julius Keter no tuvo competencia y ganó la carrera fácilmente marcando un tiempo de 31:23, en la rama femenil la victoria correspondió a Dulce Torres con un tiempo de 41:06.
El detalle en la carrera de los 11 Kilómetros lo marcó la falta de agua y bebida isotónicas (Powerade) en los primeros puestos de abastecimiento.

Boats at the Hotel Costa de Cocos, which is the largest hotel in Xcalak. However, it only has a total of 16 cabanas, so you can see that Xcalak is not a very developed place!

The startling and amazingly well-preserved sculptures uncovered at Ek Balam are exciting to both newcomers and repeat visitors of Mayan sites. Dating from 100 BC to its height at 700-1,200 BC, it is unlike any other Mayan site. Ek Balam has a feel all its own.
Ek' Balam is a Yucatec-Maya archaeological site within the municipality of Temozón, Yucatán, Mexico. The site is noted for the preservation of the plaster on the tomb of Ukit Kan Lek Tok', a king buried in the side of the largest pyramid.
The main temple here is impressive, both in size and architecture. Its massive size of over 500 feet long and 200 feet wide easily makes it one of the largest structures ever excavated in the Yucatan. It is so big that one wonders how this could have been built without the aid of iron or the wheel. The intricate detail of the artistry and symbolism incorporated into the frescoes and sculptures decorating this temple are an artistic marvel.
Ek Balam´s most striking temple is one with a huge ¨monster mouth¨. To the Maya this represents a portal to the ¨other world¨. The enormous mouth of the Witz Monster (entry to the underworld), complete with teeth, is awe-inspiring.
Evidence has been found at Ek Balam that blood letting rituals were practiced here. This was self-inflicted by the priest and nobles. Some suggest that one of the human figures depicted above the mouth is in the posture of a defeated enemy about to be sacrificed, so it may also be a site of human sacrifice but to what extent they are not sure yet.
The sculpted works of the Maya ruins at Ek Balam are unusual and extremely well preserved. Some figures are winged, some in the meditative ¨lotus¨ position, one sits headless above the center of the monster mouth. All are beautiful and exquisitely crafted.

So in this image we went for a dark black and white using just one flash with a flash bender.
As Alan doesn't smoke I added the smoke in photoshop with a soft bush,just slowly making it up with flicks a little at a time. And everything is more or less as it came out of the camera.One flash at half power with flash bender.

These mexicans (a lot better prepared, compared to Mattias poncho and skate sneakers) brought scuba gear to dive in the volcano lake and film it. The guy in orange told me that he'd climbed Mount Everest, his friend tragically died 10 minutes after they took a photo together at the top. He also climbed K2, another of his friends fell and died, so they aborted. Mattias asked him if he knew mountain climber Göran Kropp, a famous Swedish adventurer. - Yes, we are friends, he said. He didn't know that Göran Kropp died in a climbing accident a year ago.

The Shrine of Mary Help ¨ ¨ erected as a parish by Bishop Dario Miranda, in 1969, looks splendid and a sense of praise, the supernatural and the divine, with its pointed arches, rose windows, minarets and ribs, stained glass, combined with the mole vast central nave produced the characteristic movement of the Gothic style of S. XIX. Mary Help ¨ ¨, initial work of the Salesians in Mexico, is no stranger to the historical moment of the revolution that gripped the country and let people feel the brunt of instability, persecution, invasion, expropriation of property, expulsion and deportation of priests foreign Salesians and their construction made a slow but sure. Today the neo-Gothic parish as a national monument of artistic style, facing the ravages of climate, weather and adversity, causing the breakdown of some moldings of the facade and towers pose a risk to the community so that for remodeling work done with permits.

El Santuario de ¨Maria Auxiliadora¨ erigido como parroquia por Monseñor Dario Miranda, en 1969, luce esplendorosa y con un sentido de alabanza, de lo sobrenatural y lo divino, con sus ojivas, rosetones, minaretes y nervaduras, vitrales; aunados a la mole inmensa de la nave central producen el movimiento característico del estilo neogótico del S. XIX. ¨María Auxiliadora¨, obra inicial de los Salesianos en México, no es ajena al momento histórico de la revolución que convulsionó al país y en quienes dejó sentir los embates de la inestabilidad, persecución, allanamiento, expropiación de bienes, expulsión y deportación de sacerdotes Salesianos extranjeros y que hicieron de su construcción una tarea lenta pero segura. Hoy la parroquia de estilo neogótico considerada monumento nacional de estilo artístico, hace frente a los embates del clima, el tiempo y las adversidades, provocando el resquebrajamiento de algunas molduras de su fachada y torres, representan un riesgo, para la comunidad por lo que se realizan trabajos correspondientes de remodelación, con los permisos correspondientes.
