México. Natural Soul - My first book

Cover of Mexico. Natural Soul by Chico Sanchez

My first photography book, titled "México.
Natural Soul," is out!

Mexican publisher AM Editores designed a big, thick, coffee table style book featuring my travel pictures from across Mexico, focusing on nature.

From the desert of Baja California to El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve, the home of the mythical Quetzal bird, the images run full page and are accompanied by poetic texts by Alejandra Uhthoff in English and Spanish.

In the first edition 7,000 copies were printed, with 263 pages.

Working with AM Editores has been a great experience. Their graphic designers are incredibly talented and the entire process has been a pleasure. I thank their team for making me look so good.

I'm proud to be involved in a book that projects a positive image of Mexico, and promotes the love of nature, since conserving our environment and wildlife is vital to our own survival.

El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve - Sierra Madre of Chiapas - Audio slideshow

Sharing an audio-slide show about El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve in the Sierra Madre mountains of Chiapas, Mexico. El Triunfo is one of the most important protected nature areas in the world, and is situated in the southern part of Mexico's Chiapas state. It is a refuge and endemic area for different groups of plants and animals. As the most diverse evergreen cloud forest in Mexico, and one of the most important sites for bird migration, the reserve is home to numerous species of birds including several of the rarest in Latin America like the Horned Guan and the long-tailed Quetzal. El Triunfo is also home to hundreds of butterfly and amphibian species, spider monkeys, tapirs and five species of wildcats, including the jaguar.
