This llama was a bit of cute little chap. I asked him if I could take his photo and he said "llama think about it". I assured him I was qualified and had a dipllama in llama photography. Anyway, dillama averted, I told him he was the spitting image of his father ;) That did the trick
I hope his favourite song doesn't get stuck in your head ... llama, llama, llama, llama, llama, chameleon ....

One and a quarter hours from Quito, capital of Ecuador, stands the beautiful and little known colonial Hacienda of San AgustÃn de Callo. Built on the site of an Inca palace, one of the two most important archaeological Inca sites in Ecuador.
You know by now that the Atacama Desert, in Chile, is a motionless spectacle. Magnificent. The sky is immensely blue. The colors and the shades change. Almost motionless, because you can also see pink flamingos and llamas.
Llama figurine made by South American Incas 1440-1532.
Llamas were an important part of the the Inca economy and also pets and companions. Small llama statues were frequent temple offerings.
This one, larger than usual at 230mm tall, is a masterpiece of worked silver sheets. It is simple in form yet captures in its abstracted elegance the very essence of llama. It's an artefact you dearly want to own!

The one-l Lama,
he's a priest
(Hello Dalai).
The two-l llama,
he's a beast
(often melancholy).
And I will bet
a silk pajama
there isn't any
three-l llama,
(he’s extinct).

☄ Michel Pagliaro at the 2019 Quebec National Day (St-Jean-Baptiste). Pag, as he is called here is the most famous rock musician of Quebec, a real legend. He’s been on the scene for many, many years and believe me, he stills rock the crowd hard ... with the help of excellent musicians of course. So I allowed myself a small photo montage by mixing a portrait of the artist with the Fireworks.
☄ Michel Pagliaro à la Fête Nationale du Québec (St-Jean-Baptiste) 2019. Pag, comme on l'appelle ici, est le plus célèbre musicien rock du Québec, une véritable légende. Il est sur la scène depuis de très nombreuses années et croyez-moi, il continue de faire puissamment vibrer la foule ... avec l’aide d’excellents musiciens bien sûr. Je me suis donc permis un petit montage photo en mixant un portrait de l'artiste avec les Feux de la St-Jean.
☄ Michel Pagliaro en el DÃa Nacional de Quebec (St-Jean-Baptiste) 2019. Pag, como se le llama aquÃ, es el músico de rock más famoso de Quebec, una verdadera leyenda. Él ha estado en la escena por muchos, muchos años y créeme, él continúa emocionando poderosamente a la multitud ... con la ayuda de grandes músicos, por supuesto. Asà que me permità un pequeño fotomontaje al mezclar un retrato del artista con los fuegos.

Llamas are intelligent and can learn simple tasks after a few repetitions. The wool produced by a llama is very soft and lanolin-free.
