Description
Suchitlán is an artifitial lake created in 1973 through the building of the dam "Cerro Grande" (Big Hill).The small town of Suchitoto is located on the hills beside the lake....It is peaceful a colonial town, ideal to rest from the agitation of the big cities.
Something about Nahuatl words...Suchi = Flower, Tototl = Bird, Tlan = "Place abundant with..."
Chocolat and chewing gum were discovered by our ancient native Americans.
Nahuatl has given the English Language some words for indigenous animals, fruits, vegetables, and tools. The most prominent are chocolate, tomato, coyote avocado, and chile or chili. Chiclets gum's name comes from the Nahuatl word chicle!
Landscapes pictures depend not only on the skills of the photographer but also on weather conditions, clouds, a bird or a boat passing by at the right time....this the first time I get a decent picture of the lake....
Hope you like it!

once again a gorgeous shot, everything works so well,
from a technical point of view (the composition is excellent) as well as the mood/atmosphere.
The water looks so inviting to take a swim
+ 10!

You, my dear sir, are the cream of the crop.
This shot is so beautiful, I want a print of it. Seriously.

Your description is interesting. I tried to investigate the origin of the word chocolate (bitter + water) myself a few days ago and came to Nahuatl. Funny chance.

I´m not shure about the people on the shore but they´re not distracting, so there is no need to heal that; this version is much more impresive...!!!!
Great work.....!!!!!!!
