“This photograph captures the vibrant essence of a small Peruvian fishing village as a colorful fishing boat heads towards a hillside of brightly painted houses. I took this picture to record the quiet joy of the fishermen as they returned home at dusk. The image is meaningful as it serves as a powerful reminder of how a culture can be beautifully expressed through color and tradition.”
