Description

MELT YOUR HEART with the children of Ecuador. This digitally altered artwork is derived from a photograph taken Dec 21/12 at Saraguro, Ecuador, South America. More photos from this day can be seen on my "BLOG":https://souvenircuenca.blogspot.com/2012/12/friday-december-21-2012-saraguro.html
On this day I had organized a a photography trip to the area of Saraguro with several photographers to enjoy the Kapak Raymi solstice celebration of the indigenous locals. The disappointing thing about this trip is that we were not allowed to photograph the actual ceremony (which our guides did not inform us). Some of the photographers embarrassed us all by poorly trying to surrepetitiously take photos or videos anyway. I was so disgusted with the guides and those boorish photographers that I have never attempted another photography tour since then.
Saraguro is one of the locales in Ecuador which tries to maintain the traditions and dress of the past, in keeping with their rich heritage.
More information on Saraguro can be found on their webpage http://www.saraguro.org/
The children here are mesmerizing, so well behaved and so beautiful, as only children can be.
