    I tried to get some good shots there. I just know the place from the Bond movies and HAD to visit it when I went to PR. The drive through the mountains to get there is fun too!

    How did you get the arial shots???

    THANK YOU for sharing!!

    EDIT: Just noticed your screen name.... lol. I guess this is what you specialize in lol.

    Ground-views are cool too.

    I was down there doing work. We flew by on the way back from the job site. :)
