Description
Another one using the face of a young Peruvian boy.
On my trip to Peru, I took over 500 pictures, and the picture of him remains one of my favorites.
He was on top of a hill, with his mother, holding a lamb.
As tourists walked by, his mother would urge him to approach them, holding the lamb. He would pose for you, and then ask for 1 sol (25 cents).
A true bargain.
His expression said that he was too young to understand what the money was about, he was just doing it cause mom said so.
The second in a series.
Following my muse.
Thanks for looking, and I live for comments.

Wonderful metallics, and great backshadows on the motives. I like this quite a lot.

oh, I like this one. It's like he is in a cage of poverty, but there are hearts in there with him. It's evocative and poignant and beautiful.

Excellent, Mark! The metallic pearls remind me of teardrops...
