One day while exploring, camera in hand, I met this fantastic group of people from the Communications Science Department of the Universidad Veracruzana. They were filming a documentary about Aztec traditions and music, and invited me to watch. I learned a ton about Mexican history and was left wanting to know more!
Here's Alejandra with a breed of dog native to Mexico that's been around since the time of the Aztecs called "Xolozcuintle"
Benjamin, part of the team, with a rare intense look on his face. (He's usually all smiley). And by the way, we're looking for him a girlfriend if you know anyone... :-)
After the shoot on the masoleum (a.k.a. pyramid) we went to some caves with no public access, and filmed a burial ritual. I haven't mastered shooting pictures in the dark so I don't have very many good pictures of this part, but it was still pretty cool!
Alan, another part of the film department, became a good friend too. Here he is overlooking Xalapa...
