Well, I like this photo too much, it was
taken last year in the filming of a documentary, it´s the face of the last
residents of Surire salar, a very little place in the north of Chile, only 11km
of the Bolivian border. In this place only twenty persons live around, all of them
are the last survivors of the Aymara culture. The zone has a lot of houses
despite of the low population and each of these houses are around 3km of the
others. In this photo we can see one of this persons looking, with binoculars, at her herd of llamas. I like this photo because, in my view, it describes how hard
and lonely the life of this people is, mostly old people marked by the sun, loneliness
and years. We could think “in this place nothing happens” but there are a kind
of relations between persons and between people and nature very complex. I think
the history behind this photo is better than the photo jeje.
it's sound like a great place to visit. This people can teach us some good lessons about life
