  • An older gentleman heads to his field with some posts which he will use to repair the fence around his property in Guaimaca, Honduras.  Honduras is considered the third poorest country in the Western Hemisphere (Haiti, Nicaragua). With over 50% of the population living below the poverty line and 28% unemployed, Hondurans frequently turn to illegal immigration as a solution to their desperate situation. The Department of Homeland Security has noted an 95% increase in illegal immigrants coming from Honduras between 2000 and 2009, the largest increase of any country.

  • A couple walk in the middle of the road that leads to the tunnel below the Plaze Bicentenario, La Paz. Due to Government restrictions almost any vehicles could circulate on the streets of the city, leaving them to the people. Such sanctions turn La Paz into an almost ghost town. During elections period in  Bolivia, the country faces several restrictions, like no alcohol for sale 48 hours before and 12 after the election; no public gatherings, shows of any kind until the political parties made their speeches on the election night; its completely forbidden the circulation of any vehicles, private or governmental except with the permit from the Electoral Tribunal, which means it would be basically no cars, buses or anything circulating in the city; no long distance buses, the terminal will be close from Saturday until Monday and even flights will not be allowed except the ones leaving the country or the international ones doing stop-over. It is a completely shut down of the country.

  • Kids watching fireworks during the Vegetarian Festival in Phuket, Thailand. Every year during the ninth lunar month of the Chinese calendar, the Phuket Vegetarian Festival kicks off. The religious festival in Phuket, Thailand, lasts for 10 days, during which sacred rituals take place in the many Chinese shrines and temples. Walking on fire and climbing ladders with bladed rungs barefoot are two of several rituals believed to bring good fortune. The main purpose of the festival, however, is spiritual cleansing and merit-making. A chosen few among the participants, called warriors, will pierce themselves with objects such as nails, swords, and knives. The piercing takes place in a shrine and is followed by the most spectacular part of the festival, the street processions: just like in a parade they file along the streets of Phuket, with groups of one or several pierced warriors leading a number of people behind them. Onlookers throw fireworks at them as they pass; these are intended to be as loud as possible as the common belief is that this will banish evil spirits. The warriors walk and dance in a trance-like state, unshaken by the noise.
