Life of commoners in Bolivia

Leap of faith:
In between the moments of hardships to keep their families well-fed and cared for, people of Bolivia have learnt to derive pleasures from very small things in life. I saw Juan, Aleron and Cassius (L-R) playing around at the shore of Lake Titicaca. I asked these friendly kids to jump from the boardwalk while I capture their jump from behind and they enthusiastically agreed. I think this picture is an ultimate expression of human joy: the vibrant colors of the sky and the water are a perfect backdrop to the care-free attitude of the kids in spite of having just entered an intimidating world of adversities.
NB: For continuation of my story, please take this as photo # 5. (I could not change the order of the photos)
