Pool View

Today’s photo is from the Grand Bahia Principe Akumal near Tulum Mexico.  As I shared with you before, the drone police (security guard) made me put it away.  Apparently, it’s scary for everyone that a drone is flying 400 feet above their head.  Well, I got tons of photos before he came over and this is one of the many beauties I captured.

Resort Pool

I think I should switch careers to become a full-time resort and destination photographer.  What do you think?  I could travel all over the world capturing beautiful images of amazing resorts and facilities.  Sounds great, I just don’t think anyone will pay me to do that…..  Oh well, dream time is over….back to reality.

Magical Morning

I was fairly lazy on our last trip to Mexico, but I did get up one morning for the sunrise.  Thankfully, I got an amazing show that morning.  Here is one of many photos I took starting about an hour before sunrise going about 30 minutes past the sun coming up.  As you can see, it was a magical morning.

Akumal Mexico Drone Video

As you may have read on my January 30th blog post, I did some drone photography and video while we were in Mexico.  And as I shared in that post, I was busted by the “drone security officer”.  Anyway, here is my poor attempt at pulling the video into one nice clip.

Drone footage of the sea around Grand Bahia Akumal Principe

Akumal

Have you been to the Mexican Riviera area?  In my opinion, there is something special about this region.  Weather, culture, landscapes, nature… I don’t know.  They’re all great, plus the reef and cave diving is wonderful. 

Today’s photo is from above the Grand Bahia Principe Akumal Resort near the small village of Akumal Mexico.  It’s a great area, I’d recommend a visit.  By the way, what do you think of this resort’s pool area next to the ocean?  We walked this beach a few times while we were here.  It’s beautiful in person and the sand on the beach is very soft.  Some photos can’t do justice compared to being there in person.  That’s how I feel about this photo.  In in person experience was amazing.

Snack Shack

While in Mexico, I spent less time than normal shooting photos.  I just needed some down time from everything.  From work, stress, the Internet, etc…  So I took some photos, but probably only 25% of the total I would normally take.   I went out one night after dinner to capture some pics.  Tonight’s post is from that photo walk.  This is the resort poolside snack shack with a full moon above it.  I love the sky in this photo.

Palm Tree Reflections

Another photo from the Grand Bahia Principle resort near Tulum Mexico.  I took this photo this yesterday morning just after the sunrise, but before the morning shadows disappeared.  We’ve had a great time, but if I was rating this resort…… well, I’d rather not say.  Anyway, I always enjoy getting up early on vacation to catch sunrise photos and I try to get creative so that it isn’t always the same standard view of the ocean with a large ball of orange in the distance.
