Cuautinchan, Puebla
I took this shot of the 16th century church of Cuautinchan, Puebla, on January 1, the day of the town fiesta. Enjoy.

I have been all over baja and have never seen that place. Where is Puebla, and why are you posting this on a baja website. I just got back from two
weeks on the mainland, and have a thousand pictures, they are not relevant here though.

Why does this bother you? A number of people, including me, have posted pictures of not only other parts of Mexico, but of other areas as well. It
seems several people enjoy some of these pictures, and if they don't they don't look at them.
Just my opinion, but I think it is a very good picture and I enjoyed seeing it. Probably would enjoy seeing some of yours also.
Do you think there should be a ban of all photos that are not Baja????

No no no Diane
Minnows' point being, that if we all posted non-Baja specific photos, of which I also have thousands, then the forum would run amuck. Remember, Los Angeles used to be part of Mexico. jeje
If the Anarchist just tied it in by titling his post:
"A BajaNomads' old church quest photos" then technically it would fit the criteria.
I don't like posting the same photos over and over either, even if the Newbies have never seen them. Sure they would appreciate that, but it bugs some
folks to see reduntant pix, self included.
Unless you live in Baja and take photos regularily it doesn't take long to use em up. So I guess what's fair for one should be fair for all.
Remember, THERE ARE NO FAVORITES HERE!
Confession: I try to sneak one in now n' then!
Minnow, hint:
Shoot and post more sunset and sea photos. (no one will have any idea you shot it in Tahiti!:lol

Exactamente sharks. I was forced to become vary familiar with the terms of use we all agreed on before being able to post here. One of them says all
none baja specific posts are supposed to be in off topic. This one is posted in baja historic. What gives?
Sharks, I have one from the windward side of Maui that you would swear was from punta banda.

I always enjoy academicanarchist's photos. If it would please the minnow, perhaps he could title the threads A Baja Nomad's trip to Puebla, or maybe
Puebla as seen by a Baja Nomad, as Sharks suggests.
Whatever it takes, I do hope he continues to share his very interesting photos and stories here.

Minnow, I know you are technically right. I just don't see the point in raising the issue when the board is not flooded with material not related to
Baja. Many of us on this board are interested in missions and old churches and other historical sites. Those on the mainland are conected to sites
in Baja by being in Mexico. The entire country shares a common history.
Do you agree with Sharks' idea of a non-Baja category?

I think maybe Sharks' idea is a good one. I would sure hate to see things that are posted in the Picture Gallery go away.
I responded to this because I was really surprised. When other pictures of Mexico, or other places, are posted in the Picture Gallery, I have not
seen anyone complain.
But maybe Shark's idea is workable, because otherwise, if there is to be consistency, maybe Minnow is correct---but it just seems wrong to blast one
person only.
Still think it is a great photo.
Happy Travels
Diane
Afterthought---I would hate to see these things moved to the Off Topic forum because that is one place I think many of us avoid.

Hey Minnow ---
Lighten up, pal. It's all Mexico, Baja or otherwise. ACA's foto was what we are all here for, to learn about Mexico. A good foto at that. Thanks
ACA.
Why would this bother you, Minnow? You live in Las Vegas where your whole world is designed around other places. Egypt, New York, Rome. Perhaps
the BAJA WORLD CASINO and RESTROOM is next.
Give your Nomad amigo a break and quit referring to rules and regulations and, say thanks for the effort .

It is a very nice picture Minnow. Maybe you could give tell us about it... where it is (it looks familiar but I can't place it), when you took it,
how you felt about it, etc.
Give us the story!
Edit: you posted another while I was typing! Were you there on Jan 1 2007?
Do tell us about your trip!

This has come up many times before. Off-topic is TOO non-Mexico specific. I vote for the addition of one more forum entitled "Mainland Mexico".
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.
