El retorno del sol (the return of the sun), Jujuy (Argentina)
Today, it was the longest day in my country and the shortest here in Argentina. I was lucky to be invited to photograph the ‘Inti Raymi’, a celebration in Tilcara (province Jujuy) which marks the beginning of the indigeneous New Year, the beginning of a new agricultural cycle.
