Description
This young lady in Peru is posing in traditional colorfully embroidered Andean native dress including red hat, brightly trimmed jacket and woven shawl. She holds her white llama for tourists' snapshots for tips but is too shy and polite to ask.
Interesting note: Congenital deafness is prevalent in camelids with a white hair coat and solid blue eye color (approximately 90 % of animals with solid white hair coats and solid sky-blue to white eyes are deaf) according to an OSU study.

Fantastic portrait of this young woman in the native dress! The Andean dress is so very colorful with the bold reds and the multicolor stripes on the 'shawl' draped over the coat. And what makes this portrait even more interesting is the llama which also appears to be sporting a 'smile'.
