We hope you like the quality of the photographs on this page. It sure helps to have the proper photographic equipment.
If you would like to learn how to take photographs like this, of actual Maya art and artifacts, we have training programs at the Maya sites and in the museums.
If you have seen this actual jade recently, be sure to notify the Honduras IHAH because I believe this may have been the beautiful jade which was stolen while on exhibit in Mexico City.
