Puerto Vallarta 2017 — Part 1


Flying the Flag

We’ve done Puerto Vallarta many times on the blog, and in January Ursula and I returned yet again. So I’m going to try something a bit different over the next two weeks with this return look at one of my favorite Mexican destinations.  Rather than waste time on text, I’m going to take you on a strictly visual tour, with the best photos from this trip appearing over the next two Fun Photo Fridays. If you’d like an explanation of what you’re seeing, I’ll post links to previous articles on Puerto Vallarta below each day’s gallery. As for the gallery photos, just click on any image to bring up an enlarged, captioned photo and to begin each day’s slide show.

Fun Photo Friday — Whale Watching Tour Favorites


The Flag “Waves”

As I noted earlier this week, the whales on this tour were not very cooperative, but there was much to photograph anyway.  It should be no surprise, then, that my favorite photos from this tour had nothing to do with whales.

Cruisin’

One of the tricks to capturing fun images is mentally cropping what you see and determining if the composition is interesting.  Sometimes monochromatic subjects can actually work in your favor, and without the need to converting to Black & White:

Blue on Blue

Silky reflections on glassy waters don’t hurt, either:

Here are a couple of more photographs that made my “favorites” list:
