"Unhappy Boy" This boy would not smile no matter how we tried. I think he was smiling inside, he just didn't want to show it.
"Dirty Boy" taking a bath. This little boy was enjoying his bath/swim in his bateya infront of his house while his mother was hanging laundry.
Man and his donkey returning home after working picking vegetables in Cano Hondo near Los Haities.
A group of people and their little dog too, all watching a tire being changed. This was in a mountain town along a little traveled dirt path, that is said to be a road.

Chicharones (fried pork skins) being sold along a street. The ladies in the back are boiling platano over the fire. The man is waving a plastic bag over the food to keep the flies away.
A group of people gathering to watch Joselyn Payano and Junior Holguín in the "Glass House". This was a television reality show of a man and woman living for 1 month together in a glass house located on Calle El Conde in the center of the Colonial Zone. There was always a crowd watching the people along with the TV cameras always on. *Afternote-The people in the Glass House, who had never met before this show, ended up getting married about a year after the show ended. Happy endings do happen.
