All these full-color discussions of plants and material on how to improve digital photography techniques are available just by clicking on each image. FLAAR is a research and educational institute dedicated to providing information on utilitarian plants of the Mayan areas

  • endangered animals of eco-systems of Mesoaamerica
  • pollinators (more than just bees)
  • lots of other insects and arachnids of Mesoamerica

Dr Hellmuth was a visiting research professor of digital photography and wide-format inkjet printing at BGSU in Ohio and UFM in Guatemala City and thus many of our reports cover digital photography and wide-format inkjet printers.

FLAAR publications from 2013 continuing through 2018 are on the
vertical areas on the right side of most pages. We are publishing new
full-color reports on plants, animals or insects every two months.
