to justify the repetition (although i make no apology - there will be more photos to come from this day) the previous photo was about the flamingos and the lagoon, this shot provides some context with a snow capped inactive volcano in the background. it was actually very very cold on the day in question - despite the sunny clear blue skies and dessert-like environment. the ants on the far side of the lagoon are people.

flamingo flamenco
a flock of stunning pink flamingos living on special plankton which grows in the high altitude lagoons in southwest bolivia. a day of 4wDriving over sometimes trecherous terrain (no road!) was required to reach this lagoon, including an extremely scary moment when one of the wheels literally fell off the 4wD we were travelling in at high speed down a hill comprised of rocks and shale.
