Original photo Peru 2007

I was photographing the road side scenery when this beautiful family came to me smiling. I gave them a few Soles in exchange for taking the photos. After I took a couple photos I asked the child to hold the lamb alittle closer in but I didn’t realize he was going to eat the flowers! Bet the next photographer didn’t have flowers in their shot.

The bond between llamas and the women in Peru is very beautiful. They are cared for in exchange for carrying loads and providing wool for clothing. Here it appears the two have been together so long they share physical traits…he has the lower teeth and she the upper.
