Nicaragua has become a focus of attention for me, a favorite vacation spot and possible retirement location. 
It's charm and tropical beauty stirred a love of the visual image that years ago motivated me to work as a professional photographer, then taking on marketing and corporate communications projects. Now, in this land that's new to me, I am rediscovering my old love of telling stories with pictures.
