These photos were taken on a day-tour to the north of Salta,
towards the Bolivian border.


I.
La Quebrada de Humahuaca

This ravishing stretch of The Canyon of Humahuaca is known as "La Paleta del Pintor"
(the Painter's Palette) for the multicoloured hues that grace the mountainsides.
And the God that drew those clouds deserves all praise.

II.
The hillside cemetery of Maimará, near Tilcara (1)

I was interested to learn that the (prefab) flowers
adorning the tombs were laid on November 2nd, which is also the
Mexican Day of the Dead ...
