Sexy poses have never really been my thing but it's a pretty beach isn't it?⁠

Took a day trip to Hopkins Bay located along Beliz Took a day trip to Hopkins Bay located along Belize's Caribbean coast. It's sort of a sleepy backpacker beach town, or at least that's the vibe it gave me at the time. ⁠
⁠
Our group managed to find ourselves a spot on a local hotel's private beach. The owner of the property told me he rents these bungalows to digital nomads for $1000/month.⁠
⁠
Gotta say, I definitely thought about it. Wait til I show you the view. Stay tuned!⁠

One of the many unique things to do near San Ignac One of the many unique things to do near San Ignacio, Belize. ⁠
⁠
This massive cave is located in the Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve in Belize's Cayo District. ⁠
⁠
Visitors can reach the cave after a very short 3 minute hike from the parking area. ⁠
⁠
The cave opening spans 65 feet across and is the largest cave mouth in the country. When you climb inside you can see the Rio Frio (Cold River) flowing down below. Actually, the "river" is more like a stream, but it's beautiful nonetheless. ⁠
⁠
This location is also reported to have been a sacred burial site for the Maya. Would you go inside?⁠

About 30 minutes in my friend and I got swept up in a small section of rapids and thrust into some trees. We ended up capsized and clinging to tree branches while our guide paddled by unfazed. 🤣⁠
⁠
Lucky for us we were assisted out of the river by two ladies who happened to be sitting nearby. They even offered us snacks and shots of rum when we got out. ⁠
⁠
⁠Leave it to the kindness of strangers to save the day yet again. ⁠
⁠
Any fellow travelers relate to that one? ⁠
⁠
Not the capsized canoe, but the kindess of strangers. 😃 Or maybe both?⁠

In order to visit the Mayan ruins at Xunantunich y In order to visit the Mayan ruins at Xunantunich you have to cross the Mopan River via this hand cranked river ferry. ⁠
⁠
You drive your vehicle onto the ferry and the guys working there use a hand crank to propel the ferry to the other side of the river.⁠
⁠
Thought this was pretty genius myself. I love seeing new approaches to common problems around the world. One of the many, many reasons to travel more. It inspires you to think outside the box. ⁠

One of the many challenges of shooting in midday sun is that you often can't even see your screen. Not to mention that glare that I couldn't seem to get rid of in this photo even after a quick round in Lightroom. ⁠
⁠
Of course I'm aware that shooting at golden hour in morning or evenings is better for lighting, but ya can't always control where you'll be and when while traveling. So I roll with it and work with what I've got. ⁠
⁠
Any tips for shooting in midday sun? (Besides don't! 🤣)⁠
⁠
Also, last photo from Xunantunich in San Ignacio Belize. ⁠
⁠
Tip: Arrive in the morning and take photos first. Then enjoy the sights afterwards once the sun is overhead. ⁠
