For the first time in nearly two years, this morning I happened upon a colorful parade of campesino farmers from all over the Cusco region.
These events showcase the immense pride of some of Peru’s poorest people. The looks in the eyes of the participants — and this one was really big with several dozen agricultural associations represented — is so wonderful to see. People of all ages participated with lots of dancing and they even bought lots of fruit to be tossed into the crowd.
I was so glad to have my camera with me so I could shoot some photos of this beautiful event. To be honest, this is a kind of photography that I haven’t done in awhile and it took a bit to get back into the groove. Hope you enjoy these!
