@fcofont: I can't always thank everyone personally, but had a a few moments today. I truly appreciate the time you have taken to drop by, and I'm very glad you liked this image. Cheers!

nice shot! i like their hats ;) on a more serious note. the main thing that strikes me about this photo, aside from the dramatic atmosphere, is that we can't see any of the faces, which gives this feeling of faceless masses that are mostly gravitating toward something in the distance to the right

Another great shot. I like the hats too, but the sky in this series is spectacular. Cheers,

@Kobi: It's the sky and the hats that got me from the beginning. I have been practicing on getting to know my camera more to resolve unwanted and ugly highlights in the sky. Not always easy in every circumstance but I played special attention to this detail that day at Teotihuacan. Thanks for visit and comment. Cheers!

I like your point of view with the straw hat in the foreground and the sky is amazingly dramatic.
