Esperanza
Rural Ecuador offers the photographer an amazing
opportunity to see, learn about and photograph the
lifestyle of the people of this beautiful country.
Esperanza is a small community on the old
"cobblestone road" just outside Ibarra in the
province of Imbabura. |

As we traveled the cobblestone road we passed by
people walking along the road, working in the fields
and just relaxing or playing games by their homes. |

This man seems proud and pleased with his work. Many
shop keepers work hard, long hours to make a living
(in whatever they do). |

smiles by the people in the Andes! |
