Disorientation

Disorientation:
  1. Loss of one's sense of direction, position, or relationship with one's surroundings

After thousands of miles and many direction changes I really don't know where I'm at. Missed flights, overweight bags, and airline food has added to the mix and now all I can do is follow these little sheets of paper that the spanish speaking people in the sketchy Chilean airport gave me.

I'm finally finishing up the 9 hour layover that I got to experience in the Atlanta airport due to a missed flight(I got stuck in customs, FYI it's a lot harder to enter the US than it is to leave). There is a good side to the whole situation, I've finally had the time to start editing the images from this trip and wow... I don't like to say this too often but there are some bangers. The culture in Chile is quite different and the images portray it very well.

Right now I'm at the point of deciding which images are going to be used for what so by the end of this week I'll have the blog worthy shots up and as for the other ones... well lets hope you'll see them somewhere else.

While I was down there I did a whole lot hip shooting. Early in the trip I learned the hard way that the locals weren't too stoked on pictures of themselves or their work. Here's candid shots of some locals:
