Ecuadorian cuisine by Priscilla

Senor Ramon

Photographing Incan and Aztec Performers ... by Senor Ramon

Hi ... I'm an amateur photographer who will be spending this coming Winter (2015-2016) in Cuenca or region. I am looking forward to taking lots of photos of the land and the people. I am curious to know if there is a site or other source I ...

Senor Ramon

Truthfully, that would be a big help having someone there as a backup/lookout/assistant. I'll be alone, unless I am lucky enough to find someone who shares my enjoyment in photography while I'm there. Thanks again for your suggestions. ... Read More

Thanks for the additional advice, quito. I'll be totally new to the surroundings and appreciate the heads up(s). I can see how being caught up in the shots might present a problem - sometimes it's difficult not to do that especially when ... Read More

Senor Ramon

Hadn't thought about that as an issue, mugtech, but surely there must be lots of people wandering around with cameras. Any experienced expats able to shed some light on this matter? Read More

Thanks again, quito ... I have a good telephoto lens but have always preferred shooting people and events close up, unless it was necessary to shoot from a distance. I'm certain it will come in handy when I want to get photos of the landscape ... Read More

Senor Ramon

Thanks, Quito. Sounds pretty simple and I'd have no problem providing the performers with digital copies via e-mail or text. I thought there might be some expectations that people wouldn't photograph the performers, at least without their ... Read More

I want to buy a desktop in the US and ask my mom to bring it on the plane, but the more I think about it, the more complicated it seems. I guess I can buy a desktop here, what do you guys think? Some issues/concerns: -How to get the desktop OS to ...

I do a lot of image editing and am planning to install all of my editing software on my Dell laptop and hopefully buy a 24-30 inch monitor in Cuenco to allow for better screen rez. Anyone have any warnings or thoughts on this plan. What are costs of ... Read More

Somebody mentioned in one post I read, but cannot seem to find again,that International Living Magazine paints an rosy picture of life for º£½ÇÂÒÂ×s in Ecuador. Just how rosy??? I would really like to hear from Canadian º£½ÇÂÒÂ×s about their experiences ...
