Description A woman dressed in traditional Peruvian garnments standing beside her llama (Llama glama - a funny scientific name indeed) at the entrance to the Sacsayhuamรกn ruins. For more information on those ruins, have a look here: [link]
I don't think she liked my photographing her from a distance very much - they usually offer to pose with people and their animals for a photograph, charging between five and ten soles (something like two to five US dollars) per shot.
Sacsayhuamรกn, Cuzco, Peru.
Canon 7D.

The composition in this picture is just great. The Inca empire might be over but not its culture. By theway That is one cute llama

I think she really was. xD I was hoping she wouldn't see me take the shot, but sadly she did.

I find this image worth of National Geographic. It lets the viewer focus on the woman but also lets him grasp the environment she is living in.

I also like the colors in the photo and the light.

I look forward to your next shots

You are too kind, I am far from that standard when it comes to photography.
Thank you for the kind comments!
