Hundreds of indigenous workers, most of them Quechas, gather daily on the outskirts of Sucre to board large trucks that will take them to the distant town of Ravelo where they will labor in the fields, or buy and sell agricultural products. This truck terminal provided fertile ground for portraiture. This woman was waiting for her bus to load while sitting in an aluminum shed, eating an orange. The sun was already quite harsh, but she was sitting in the shade, glowing in the light reflecting off an aluminum panel. I often try to work with reflected light – it is warm, soft, and renders detail beautifully. An interpretive portrait can communicate character and personality. In this case, I portray a woman who has seen much of life, yet still can summon the strength to daily earn her living. The hat and poncho speak of her Quecha roots. Her hands expressively grasp the last slice of orange as if it were a treasure. I used a 345mm telephoto focal length to make this image. She never saw me, and remained completely relaxed.
