Night Stroll

Wouldn’t it be awesome of these people just stubbled on this picture one day? That is so unlikely, but I hope it happens. Seems like they were enjoying the night, just as I was. Pretty hard not to enjoy the ambiance of the city at this time and on this street. I hope to be …

Good Times On The Job

I don’t know if these guys were coming from a job or going to one. Either way, they looked happy about it. When I shot this photo I had just sat down on a bench and I saw these two guys walking up the street. I knew right away I wanted a picture of these …

The Good Bench

I walked by this bench so many times. And for whatever reason I found myself in this general vicinity often. There is a 7 Eleven right behind this bench, so I stopped in here a few times. There is also a money exchange place across from the 7 Eleven, so just those 2 reasons alone …

Hang out

I was just wondering around a neighbourhood in Playa Del Carmen as one with a curious mind does. The main streets are good, but I also find regular streets to be just as interesting. I also find it really interesting to see how locals are living and going about their lives. This picture shows that …

In The Street

Look at this crazy Mexican in the middle of the street! 🤣 Clearly the lighting is bad and the shadows on my face are awful, but I like the memory so I’m posting the picture haha. Michelle, our kids and her brother were out exploring Playa Del Carmen and I was taking pictures here and …

Down by the Beach

I didn’t spend a ton of time at the beach while I was in Playa Del Carmen. I think I had 2 real beach days, and few beach walks. Like these guys, I think I prefer to be near the beach and looking at it rather than right on it getting my shoes full of …

Motorcycle Dog

I just barely got this picture. These two were burning by and as soon as I noticed the dog my camera went flying up to my face! The funny thing is the dog was looking right at me when I shot the photo. I’m so happy the photo worked out how it did. It seems …

This Street at Night

This street is a pedestrian only street and day or night it is just packed with people. This one moment is one of the quieter moments I was able to get a picture. In fact I think this is about as quiet as I ever saw it. But trust me, this moment was just a …

The Tourists

You see a lot of tourist grouped together like this in Mexico. Whenever I see them I always wonder what the occasion for the trip is, what they are doing and who they are to each other and where are they from? It’s none of my business but these are questions that just pop into …

Coffee Mi Amor

Michelle and I were walking down a random street in Playa Del Carmen. It was hot and about coffee time. A guy we stopped on the street told us about this coffee shop. As soon as we walked in I saw this cool sign on the wall and knew I needed a picture. There were …

Suitcase Street

Playa del Carmen is the only place I have experienced that you often see people walking around the busiest streets with suitcases. Every time I’ve been to Playa del Carmen it has always stood out to me that people would be walking around with suitcases in the busiest tourists areas. I guess it makes sense …

In Playa Del Carmen

I know I just kind of disappeared last week. It’s not because I have given up the blog. The reason I wasn’t posting is because I was down in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico for a week living it up! I’ve got lot of photos from streets and just around town. So you can expect a …

Trusty Ol 50mm 1.4

I have always loved 50mm. It’s just such a perfect lens for how I like to shoot. Over the years I have had so many different 50mm lenses. Even right now I couldn’t even tell you how many different 50mm lenses I have. If I had to guess I’d say between 10 and 20. With …
