On 8 May 2007, by the courtesy and special permission of the Honduran Archaeological Institute, I was able to capture the Ruinas Copan (Copan Ruins) after park hours. This gallery covers from 4 pm until about 30 minutes after sunset -- when the ruins became more and more eerie ... when he souls of the thousands of Mayans who were born and sacrificed, lived and died there ... when their presence became more and more clear.
