Happy Valentine’s Day

a Quechua girl poses with her pet llama on a mountain near Cusco

Girl and Llama

Cusco, Peru 2004

We drove up the mountain, leaving Cusco in the valley below. My cup of coca tea had temporarily stilled my burgeoning headache and wooziness. I was ready to photograph! Luckily there were children dressed in their native clothes standing on the side of the road. Some held parrots and some held llamas. I liked this little girl with her rather stand-offish expression…was it me or was it the rough tongue of her llama?
