The
picture of Phil on the left marks the beginning of my fascination with the
Spanish spelling of Extinguisher, a fascination not shared by the various kids
I photographed over the years. I’ve included a picture of Phil’s cousin Nick,
taken five years later in Peru, to show I did manage to get other shots before people
started working together to prevent me from noticing Extintor signs in various
Latin American countries.
I have one more painting of Costa Rica that I’ll post in a few days
before moving on to my second trip – with Phil’s brother Dan, the following year.
