I love the color and tonality in your shots - always so vibrant and warm, yet not over saturated. It's especially noticeable how much vibrancy and pop you can get in a blown out photo. Nice. Great shots and story!

They certainly have that film look (Fuji 400H or Kodak Portra come to mind). Were they shot on film? Surreal place, amazing people and beautiful images.

You capture the life of the country no matter where you go. I loved what you said about trying to visit the place because it is so true that a picture can bring emotion and a light to someone else's life but seeing it first person changes you at the core.

I was looking at the PoP website and noticed they just formed a new partnership with an organization in Nicaragua. i spent the summer of 04' volunteering in Central America and have been looking for an excuse to go back ever since. I was hoping you could pass Adam's contact info along to me. Amazing images Nick!
