Greetings, dear friends with a passion for photography. I am continuing this series of posts with new photographic material featuring urban portraits from Cumaná. Below, you can view a collection of images centered around the area surrounding the Church of Santa Inés, in the city's historic heart.

View of the Church of Santa Inés from the state office of the Ministry of People's Power for Culture.

This is Callejón de la Luneta in the San Francisco neighborhood; in the background stands the historic house where Hortensia Maestracci was held captive—a woman who spent more than 40 years locked away and held against her will.

From Pan de Azúcar Hill—specifically from San Antonio Castle—this high-angle photograph reveals the prominent architecture of the Church of Santa Inés, with the Caribbean Sea of the east visible in the background.

The following photograph is a recent one; it was taken today before noon, and it is the only one in this series that does not belong to the month of August.

Thank you for reading, see you soon, I wish you much success.
