Last Sunday (June 27th) was the date of the monthly photo trip I go on with an active local photography group that meets via photo sharing site Flickr. The One Love Jamaica Flickr Group went to Cool Blue Hole in St Ann –Â a quite spot in the hills just outside Ocho Rios that is a nature lover’s paradise with lots of greenery and a 25 foot pool and a series of waterfalls. The second spot was Rio Nuevo in St Mary – the site of the final battle between British and Spanish forces in 1658 to determine possession of Jamaica, a battle which the Spanish lost and Jamaica switched hands from a Spanish Colony to belonging to the British.
I got most of my photos at Cool Blue Hole in the morning as I went on the trip with a really bad cold and by 1pm my meds had worn off and I wasn’t well enough to frolic around the mouth of the river and beach at Rio Nuevo. Spent most of the afternoon hanging with Brian, Charlene, Remlin and Gio chatting about random topics and enjoying the views. More photos below.
Do you use Flickr? If you have interesting pictures especially related to Jamaica and/or Japan add me as a contact. Also follow me on twitter and look out for my photography related tweets.

Beautiful….
Looks amazing! You’re lucky to live in such a beautiful place =) The photo group sounds like a really cool idea.
these monthly trips have been making me appreciate my country even more.
It’s amazing. I am self-taught-neophyte-photographer and I really like and love this. I wish, I ain’t here in the Philippines, then, I choose Western Countries to take-a-look-around because there’s a lot of perfect themes for pictorials. I like it.
What a view! [jamaica] Great shots man. What cam do you use?
I have Nikon D70 that a friend has loaned me. My regular camera is a Sony DSC-h9
Nice photos! I didn’t know you had a cold!
you were busy frolicking with all the models to notice đ
Wow, such beautiful models in a beautiful scenery. Now I wonder, which type of girls do you feel more attracted to, Japanese or Jamaican? [jamaica]
I am a Japan enthusiast but my heart lies with my Jamaican beauties ^_^
Beautiful images !!
Just gorgeous! We will be going to Ochi and Kingston in just a couple weeks. The Cool Blue Hole is DEFINITELY on my “things to do and see” list. Can’t wait to see more of your photos. We’re only going to be in Jamaica a week. If only we had more time to experience more of beautiful Jamaica!
I’ve had intentions to visit this place for a while. Seems like a really nice spot. How exactly do I find it?
