On March 26, 2007 I published the lower left photo from guest photographer and friend, Roger Evert. The young men of Mazatlan are still diving from this platform, a risky business. Last week while strolling the Malecon I saw another young man poised on the platform, and I took the top photo right after he dove into the ocean. He safely emerged and then climbed to the top to do it all over again. A dangerous display to earn pesos from impressed tourists.

Captura excelente, las miradas de cielo azules tan hermosas tan hacen el mar azul. Debe requerirse que mucho coraje salte de tal altura.
Tienen un tiempo agradable.
Respetos.

superbe cette série, j'adore.
He deserves all the pesos he gets. That looks scary has heck.
I don't know if I would like or hate to look at this for real!
Wow! What a photo!
Do they ever have any injuries doing this? I guess the water is deep enough - but it isn't something I would try!
I'm with Peter, I would want to look but NOT want to look. You captured him perfectly however. So Kate, is it safe to assume that winter hasn't gotten you down??HA Enjoy the sun and sea1

Good shot, made the hair stand up with a gasp. e
Superb picture, scary moment!
Great catch of this diver, like the Acapulco"s La Quebrada. Have a wonderful Wedding Anniversary. Greetings from another paradise of Mexico, Cancun.
We didn't see the dives when we were in Mazatlan last year... and I may be glad we didn't. That looks incredibly scary! Nice shots!
It looks so dangerous, doesn't it? Are there many injuries from this, Kate? It simply doesn't seem worth it for so lttle.
Great photos!! That must feel like flying!
That looks dangerous! It looks like he is going to land on the rocks!
Great action shot :)
Oh my goodness, how scary but how fabulous. A great capture, Kate. And yes we had that drink to you both!
dangerous way of earning pocket money, never the less your photo is great.

Crazy!!!
