What? You were expecting beautiful scenery? I’ll be getting to that. In the meantime, internet access is spotty at best. From downtown La Paz, Bolivia, yesterday. I’m off to ride down the worlds most dangerous road, look it up if you have a morbid sense of humor.

Very soulful picture Ron!
I looked it up – I wish I had waited til you were safely home again….
Her face tells such a story. Portrait is poignant.
Very moving, expressive photo, Ron. It’s hard to look away. It’s one of the few pictures I’ve seen that make me want to reach out in some way.
I don’t have to look up the road. I’ve heard of it. Take care.
any picture that makes my heart hurt, literally, is one that i won’t forget too soon
thanks, wow
Moving photo Ron..BTW Is that the same highway I saw on the discovery channel?
It’s hard to comprehend. I used to work with homeless people here in Richmond. There are never enough places for them to stay and they end up sitting somewhere like this or trying to sleep in the weeds or under a bridge.
Thanks guys, this was one of the first photos I made and still might be my favorite.
Yes Bernie, that was the one but it’s a stroll in the park compared to some of he other roads I’ve been on tis trip. My fingers have become part of the permanent collection in a couple of 4x4s.
