Where there's smoke...

@Ronnie 2¢: Yes...though the flower farms require lots of hired labor, so they bring a real benefit in a country with such a high unemployment rate. There are no Edens.

@CRFoto: Good point -- and interesting to me because I don't see this landscape that way at all. I see air thick with diesel fumes, a brush fire on the horizon, and an intensely cultivated landscape pushing up against a dense wildlife population. Being aware of the enormous camp full of internal refugees just a few kilometers away also colors my view. I think it's wonderful how differently we all see things...one of the reasons we all keep taking pictures.
