072/365 - Muchas gracias Ekeko
They're Ekeko dolls from Peru. No I didn't fly there and back today. I see these guys every week at an office I teach. The owners of the business are very well travelled.
According to the South American folklore, the Ekeko, the Andean god of wealth and prosperity, only delivers if an offering is made. I didn't have that much cash on me (or a lighter), so I decided to take a photo instead… free of charge… in the hope to that he'll grant me with photographic creativity and prowess, and with it some paying clients.
I've recently opened up a pro bono photo service to my friends and connections, in order to develop my portfolio for a possible business endeavor. So like the reciprocity of the Ekeko, perhaps my little gesture now will reap some dividends down the track.
