Morteros

At the border of Córdoba province and Santa Fe province is the pueblo of Morteros, roughly 3 hours in car outside of Córdoba capital.  As the Luciérnaga is growing in the city, it´s expanding to the pueblos in the outskirts of the province.  In early August, I accompanied the director, social worker, and one of the canillitas to a press conference in Morteros where we presented the three newest canillitas with 100 magazines to sell.  The only town in the middle of nowhere, the pueblo is known for being wealthy, so why would people there be interested in selling the Luciérnaga, a magazine sold to fight poverty?  The three new canillitas are special-needs, and selling the magazine gives them an opportunity at independence.  Anywho, for me, the event was an exercise in talking heads and smiling groups.

The ducks were the most visually interesting things I shot all day
