2003 CONTEST WINNER
Photographer: Neil Juhn
Where: Patacancha, Peru
When: July 28, 2003
Brief description: In the high Andean village (13,000
ft), indigenous children were gathered to greet us, visitors from the
US, and
to receive
gifts we brought.
What this image means to me: Unwashed faces, sun burnt cheeks, dirt covered
feet – all these do not seem to dim the spirits of these children.
I hope they have brighter futures.
