perspective to mayan ball's game field

Most of the prehispanic cultures, and specially mayan, had the ball's game field, it was a worship game, some of them related to fertility and others to wars, they usually played with their hips, and unfortunately there were sacrifices of one of the teams to their gods. This pictures are from Copán in Honduras, the second main mayan ceremonial center.

old silo

i like antique things, they have such nice textures, i took this picture at the museum. But there are many people that still use silos (don't know the english word for a milk container...), i mean at the country, and there are some collectionists as well, it's also used to paint crafts on it.

dreamy eyes!!

i have been taking some photos to my lovely Rocco! in my opinion, he has really lovely eyes, so i thought to post this time one of those pictures!! :D

la guitarra española

I have an old guitar staring at me every day... though,.... i have never really learn to use it, i wanted to do it... but i don't dedicate the time to it... and if i have some free time, i preffer to do other stuffs, but still, i love the music played by an spanish guitar, makes me relax with its special rhythm!!

power symbol

This time i'm going back to a new archaeological post!! ;) it's good to change subjects once o while ;) ... well, this is the mayan symbol of power, a scepter for governments. The name for it is "Pedernal excéntrico" and there have been found only 11 in the area named Mesoamérica ( north México to Nicaragua) (ok, i mean the entire world! ;)) most of them found in Copán, but there's also one in my country from a site named San Andrés! :)

nature... a peaceful place

I took this photo at a botanical garden, in reality, is not a common botanical garden, when you are into it, it seems that you are in a tropical forest, i really like to be there, it's a peaceful place!

interiors art

I took this photos at an hotel of my city, i really liked the wall and the colours of the stained glass, so i though to post them in here! :)

blue indigo

Blue indigo was an important pigment in the history of my country, since prehispanic times, it comes from the plant named jiquilite, during XVIII and XIX century it became the exportation product for excellence, the base of economy! Nowadays, it's a pigment used to dyed all kind of artisanal products, i really love the kind of design you can do with blue indigo!!!

basílica de Guadalupe

Beautiful church, it has paintings of the Guadalupe virgen, and it gets really full when december 12th comes... a conmemoration date! i took this photo when i was going to University!

sunset :)

This photo was not taken for me, but as i really love sunrise and sunsets, i'm posting it here, i have this photo as background of my pc, i feel happy every time i turn on my computer!! :) I think this kind of colourful sunrises or sunsets (in this case) brings to your mind memories or good ideas, and you have such a nice feeling that you feel happy!! don't you think so? :D Well... i'll post next time at the end of this week i guess, cause i'm on exams week... but i'll try to do it as sooner as i can!! Best wishes for everybody!! :D
