Iglesia de Nuestra Señora del Agua Santa

This church lies smack in the middle of town, like most churches in Latin America. This is why I lugged the tripod all the way down here and it's only the second time I've hauled it out, put it back together and lumbered outside with it. Totally worth it. I tried to shoot around that trash can but only had about a 10 minute window of opportunity and kind of like it in the shot. Now it's pouring rain outside and tomorrow I've got about ten hours of traveling to Cuenca. Bedtime.

Dude, those stairs up to the tower en La Basilica en Quito - GNARLY! There were electric wires taped together that you had to step OVER just to get onto that outside staircase. That was almost gnarlier than climbing up the the glacier on Chimborazo...

That's a beauty shot. Doesn't even look real. Santana and I did those stairs too. You couldn't turn back once you started.
