Beautiful shot. I love their facial expressions and of course their dresses. I was there last February and I absolutely loved that place. I just sat there on the plaza and watched the people. There were also no tourists there. Thanks for sharing it.

Good scan, balanced colors and the hard sun contrast to enhance this dubble portrait with their typical clothings and a strong expression, she with a tiny smile of youth and father with the lined face of hard life to us.

Hello Patrick,

I love this nice daily picture, especially the way they are looking at you, a man rather suspiciously with one eye closed and a girl openly and friendly with real interest. Beautiful colourful Guatemala, this is how I imagine this country. Write me please a little bit about ypur way of travelling in Guatemala. Thanks in advance.
best regards
