[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This picture is intended to complement the one I posted previously. Same children, same sheep...

As you leave most cities of the Bolivian Altiplano you will notice this nice message wishing you a nice trip back home. Those who have ever taken the tracks in the very heart of the Andes will certainly understand what it means.
It is hard for us to imagine the risk people are facing every day when they climb in a truck or a bus.
The slopes are sometimes so steep that you can hardly see the precipice below your feet... unless you lean out of the window !
Be careful !

J'aime beaucoup vos photos de Bolivie. C'était mon premier long voyage lorsque j'ai été pensionné.
Ca nous change de Ličge.

Hi Eric,
Excellent composition. How high is this place? Looks very similar to Ladakh in India, which has the same barren landscape.
