  1. Grandmother Weaving

    This grandmother from San Antonio Aguas Calientes weaves textiles to sell to tourists in her family compound. Her loom is a traditional backstrap loom, the end of which is attached to one of the outdoor roof beams, to maintain tension.

  2. Step Pyramid

    One of the many great step pyramids and monuments hidden in the jungle around Tikal in Guatemala

  3. A Beautiful Child

    This is young lady in San Antonio Aguas Calientes, Guatemala. The opportunity to meet her family, watch her grandmother weaving on a backstrap loom and photograph her home was a gift.

  4. Ouija Bird

  5. Parakeet Palace

    In the claustrophobically crowded Guatemalan market of San Francisco el Alto, my eye was caught by a cage and its contents: pretty little pastel parakeets. Their job is forecast the future, selecting fortunes with their tiny beaks.

  6. Dawn over Lake Atitlan

    Lake Atitlan is often described as Guatemala's Riviera. I was staying in the small town of Santa Catarina on the edge of lake and got up early one morning to take this shot by the local jetty and with the volcanoes in the background.
