STREET PEOPLE - LA PAZ by

Life is difficult for the people of the Bolivian Altiplano. This Aymara mother and daughter were photographed on a steep backstreet in La Paz, the largest city in Bolivia. At 11,900 feet, La Paz is the second highest major city in the world after Lhasa, Tibet.

    man you can see the hardship on their faces, can’t even sit down on a flat bit of ground hey!
    The colours of the clothing of these people is great tho and the weathered faces are fabulous, and sooo thought provoking………

    Wonderful perspectives, Michael!
    An essential ingredient to an increasingly alienating world!
