Nicaragua Trip

Posted: July 21st, 2009 | Author: Noah | Filed under: Latin America, Photos, Travel | 1 Comment »

Megan and I took a 2 week trip to Nicaragua in late June / early July and we had a great time. We visited Granada, Volcáns Mombacho and Masaya, Isla Ometepe & the Corn Islands. It’s taken us a while, but we’ve finally sorted through the photos and got them posted in a gallery.

Hawk’s Eye photo albums are back

Posted: April 26th, 2009 | Author: Noah | Filed under: Photos, Projects | No Comments »

In 2007 Megan and I stopped using our photo galleries hosted on this site and started using Google’s Picasa Web Albums instead.  There were a lot of reasons for doing this, but we were never quite satisfied with Picasa Web Albums.  I’ve been looking for a self-hosted solution for a while and finally found a good one called ZenPhoto.  It even had a theme based on the design I had used for the the old galleries created by Doug Bowman, who happens to the new creative director at Twitter.

So now all of our photo albums old and new are available at Hawk’s Eye. We’ll post new photos and galleries there and you can subscribe to a RSS feed of the galleries and leave comments on the photos. Some captions are still missing, but I’ll work to add those over the next week or so.


Trip to Morelia

Posted: February 20th, 2009 | Author: Noah | Filed under: Photos, Travel | 1 Comment »

Last weekend Megan and I took a trip to Morelia, the capital of Michoacan State.  I’ve been through Morelia on the bus a few times and Megan stayed there for a while during one of her trips through Mexico, but we were both eager to explore the city.  We were also very excited to see our friends Jim and Linda whom we met last year on a trip to Patzcuaro.  Jim and Linda have a wonderful home in downtown Morelia called Casa del Cielo (or House of Heaven).   Below is the photo gallery from the trip and I’ll have a lot more to say after the jump.
