anthon cauper photography & design

weekend! XD ok this weekend we went to visit the manati rescue center, it was great! these animals are so nice! we spent some hours there watching the manaties, feeding them, taking photos, yeah! XD, well I couldn’t take more photos, because my camera’s battery died so soon, last night i forgot to charge it, anyways i still took some photos at the rescue center, and also when we were heading to the jungle, to pass the night there, which was cool, the landscape is beautiful, took some photos of the kids playing, and yeah, was kinda a normal day =)

During this day we had the visit of the major of the district of san juan to the campaign place, so our famous journalist kourtney interviewed the major, the major had a look art the work the organization Amazon Cares is doing, when i was done taking the photos of the work of the day, and it was time for lunch already we needed to go as fast as posible to a restaurant, my stomach was asking for food please XD, hahaha, so to get back to our place we took a buss, oops, is that a fast transport? XD, nah, we just wanted to go in the buss, and had the experience to be on a wood made buss, which it was nice, i got some photos of that, then we had to go the post office for a moment, while coming back we had a shambo ice cream of aguaje, wich it was so good in this hot weather, back our place and after gotten some lunch, we’ve got to rest a bit and I had to download the pictures of the day, do some editions, well till night.
time for dinner, yeah! I am hungry!… XD but we were having a very rain, the last days have been raining suddenly and heavily, so we had to find a close place where to eat, we found a restaurant were we had a pisco sour, and I had chicken, i just needed to eat, for the time of coming back the rain was heavier, but still it was fresh after having a very hot weather, here I’ll show you the photos

It has been nice to have such great people to work with here at Iquitos with Amazon Cares, the volunteers are doing a great job with animals, I am trying to get the best photos I am able of the work being done, I never saw a city where there are only motorcars instead of cars, and also the first time I see buses made of wood, well half wood half metal, the transit of vehicles is really busy, this morning while going to the campaign place the motorcar i was going in, almost crash with a motorbike, same when I was coming from the airport, the motorcars were driving so close that it was scaring, I don’t want to have an accident because of irresponsible drivers, well that’s Iquitos a lot of motorcars, obviously the bad drivers are few. So far I have only seen 2 cars, when i just here i was wondering, are there cars in this city? XD, is a really nice city, I need to take some more pictures but yeah is my second day here.

*and here are the photos*
