Girls of the Amazon
DESCRIPTION
My travels in the Amazon Rainforest brought to me some unforgettable experiences. Jungle treks in search of sloths and prehistoric birds, boat rides down the river surrounded by pink dolphins, giant lilies in their natural environment.. Yet thinking back, my time with the Yagua tribes is by far the highlight of my trip to the Peruvian rainforest. I am often drawn to photographing children wherever I go and these kids were just as curious as me to get to know each other and were happy to share with me their games and let me have a glimpse into their world.
