Animals of South America

I traveled to Peru, Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands in 2009.

Seeing the native animals up close left an indelible mark on me.

My motivation for visiting the Galapagos were the tortoises.

I am attracted to the metaphor of the tortoise. He/she can go inside

when needed, and come out when they please.

Here is a link to the book I created compiling the best of my 

animal photos:
