Honduras

honduras

In August of 2009, Walter Lowe and I traveled to Honduras to capture video for a series of webisodes that were designed to attract tourism to this beautiful country.  Although the trip was postponed at first – due to a military coup that was happening around the same time – I had such a wonderful time exploring the country.  We were there for eight days and traveled across the entire country shooting at some of the most exquisite locations that I have ever seen.

History’s Secret Spaces
