Quick Introduction

[TWSmith]

I am a novice to photography but love to shoot nature and history shots. In a former life I was the right hand guy to a world renown Archaeologist/Anthropologist who found the cradle of the Maya civilization in Northern Guatemala. I got to see and experience amazing history and wildlife and of course take a lot of pictures along the way. This shot is me in a tree surround by a group of endangered and very aggressive White Lipped Peccary. I climbed the tree not knowing what I would see and had an a amazing time.

Both actually.
Living in the SW there is an abundance of such.
Including Hispanic and Indian cultural aspects, Elk, deer, turkey, Biker gangs and other assorted wildlife.

Here is some pics from our camera traps set strategically set up on the main animal trails in the Mirador Basin in Northern Guatemala.

WOW!
The dog I wonder if made it.
The jaguars and Puma look rather content with themselves.
But cats usually are.

Nope, the dog didn't have a chance. From a history perspective I love shooting Maya masks.

When taking photos of sites, is there concern over hot flash or disruptive light?
