The most creative response would receive a photo post card mailed to your home or office. Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor…

Help The Park Photographers

Saturday, May 11th, 2013

Rudy Giron: AntiguaDailyPhoto.com &emdash;

Many parks and main squares in Guatemala have photographer making a living by taken snapshots of visitors who want to keep a memento of their visit. La Antigua Guatemala is not an exception since there are about a dozen park photographers offering the instant photography service. For about Q20/$2.25 you can have your photograph taken and printed in situ. I recommend you to use their photography service at least once so you have a souvenir and at the same time help the honest photographers make a living. It’s in my opinion, a small price to pay, about the cost of a cup of coffee, to have a polaroid of your visit to Antigua Guatemala and help our local photographers; don’t you agree?

Weather aside: By the way, this is the rainy season in Guatemala. ;-)

To me there is no greater satisfaction than to be able to share with you, to lend a hand and to provide all the interesting information I come across. Of course, none of it would be possible without the support from my wife, family and friends. A big THANK YOU for all your support as well!

If AntiguaDailyPhoto has been at all useful to you, I will let you INVITE me a cup of coffee through the tip jar on the left.

Please, send me a post card as well!

TragaletrasThe first time I requested post cards was an experiment entitled Postscript; a test we ran back in 2007 when we wanted to test how efficient was the regular Guatemalan Postal Service.

We were delighted by the kind words and to see postal stamps from many cities and countries. So, if you appreciate the work we do at AntiguaDailyPhoto and want to show it or simply participate in testing the snail mail system AGAIN, please, send a post card or letter from wherever you find yourself now to the address below:
