Dog Days
Otro fotógrafo que deja su alma en el paisaje colombiano: Alec SothLa serie de de fotografías la denominó Dog Days, y fue realizada en Bogotá.
"My wife and I adopted our baby girl, Carmen Laura, from Bogotá, Colombia. While the courts processed her paperwork, we spent two months in Bogotá waiting to take Carmen home.
Carmen's birthmother gave her a book filled with letters, pictures and poems. "I hope that the hardness of the world will not hurt your sensitivity," she wrote, "When I think about you I hope that your life is full of beautiful things."
With those words as a mission statement, I began making my own book for Carmen. In photographing the city of her birth, I hope I've described some of the beauty in this hard place".

La revista Arcadia también dedica unas páginas de su último número a la obra de este fotógrafo de Magnum en Bogotá.
