A Picture is worth a 1000 words: Due on Mar. 30, 2015

For this entry, please post a picture that you feel captures the culture of the place you are at -- this includes work culture. You can choose to take a picture of a person/people, an event, a ritual or tradition, or work/research/a transaction-in-action. 

Avoid taking pictures of food, monuments, scenery, animals, or anything that would be stereotypically touristy. The focus here is to see how well you have started looking at your surroundings from an informed ‘insider’ perspective.

Please write a short accompanying piece on why you selected this picture and the significance behind it – what it teaches us about your destination that a tourist would not know.

Once again, please use the subject header: "A Picture is worth a 1000 words." Thank you!
