All of these images are fascinating, Armando. The interior is magnificent in it's gold filagree. With your explanation, and subsequent image, I am even more taken with that floor in the library.

As for Popocatepetl, I like it  as shown, but of course you are the artist, so changes are your decision.

Beautiful photos, Armando.  They remind me of some of the reasons why I visited Mexico twice in three years, and why I want to return.

Popocatépetl, Mount Fuji, and Kilimanjaro must be the three most beautiful and photogenic mountains.
I haven't photographed any of them yet :)

Thank you for your photos I am enjoying them thoroughly.

Armando,

This thread is full of truly amazing photographs. Thank you! I don't recall such ornate and beautiful church interiors.

There seem to be lot of history in Puebla. I like the second a third photo (in the first series). Second one especially is very nice "travel" photo.

Sumptuous subjects and beautiful serie, Armando !

You managed the available light successfully in interiors buildings.

I guess the churches/libraries pics were handheld ?

Bravo ! :)

Fantastic shots.  Bishop's Library is my favorite.  All are well executed!

Fred, Rosko, Anirban, David, thanks for commenting

All images were handheld, I did have some blurry images when using the 10mm f2.8 , not so with the 18.5 f1.8, ISO 400 was sufficient to get a decent shutter speed  and keep the noise levels acceptable on such a small sensor
