Description
The floating Islands of the Uros people of Lake Titicaca are formed from compacted beds of totora reeds. Walking on these spongy, unstable islands is a strange experience !

What a great idea to take balloons with you. Such vibrant colours and how strange to live on something that floats.

Fantastic etnic photo of great effect of depth and perspective....!!! Beautiful and intense colors.....!!! Most for not saying the entirety of these cholas (it denominates this way them to the aboriginal ones), they are descending of the inhabitants that found the Spaniards with the discovery of America. It is lamentable that all the governments don't make anything since for those who are the true owners of the earth, the only thing that they made to the arrival of the Spaniards it was to defend the territory of the conquering dominance. And it is also very lamentable that in all the countries of the territory of all America, from Alaska until Tierra del Fuego, the governments make little for these aboriginal ones that personally respect a lot. (La mayoria por no decir la totalidad de estas cholas (asse las denomina a las aborenes), son descendientes de los habitantes que encontraron los espales con el descubrimiento de Amica. Es lamentable que todos los gobiernos no hagan nada por quienes son los verdaderos dues de la tierra, ya que lo unico que ellos hicieron a la llegada de los espales era defender el territorio de la dominaci conquistadora. Y es tambi muy lamentable que en todos los paises del territorio de toda Amica, desde Alaska hasta Tierra del Fuego, los gobiernos hagan poco por estos aborenes que personalmente respeto mucho.)
