Javier, Salvador y Adán


Javier, Salvador y Adán, originally uploaded by Arantxata.

Viven en Santa Rosa, la última localidad del municipio de Los Reyes (Michoacán), allá en una zona montañosa donde continuamente sopla un viento que corta la piel y hace polvo las rocas.

Hoy tuvieron visita, gente importante de Morelia visitó su comunidad porque después de mucho trabajar con toda la población, fueron certificados como Comunidades Saludables, junto con otras dos localidades hermanas: San Antonio y San Isidro.

Javier, Salvador y Adán descubrieron hoy la magia de la fotografía, primero como modelos y después como fotógrafos.

They live in Santa Rosa, the last village of Los Reyes municipality, in Michoacán. It is a mountain region, where the wind blows hurting the skin and making dust from the rocks.

Today they were visited by important people from Morelia, the State capital. The governor's wife and the Health Secretary, among others, went there to celebrate that after a hard work by all the people, their town (and two others, San Isidro and San Antonio), are considered "Healthy Communities". They have now a clean and beautiful village, where all the kids under five are vacunated and the mums have prenatal control and lactancy control, among other actions.

For Adan, Javier and Salvador (the older), today was also the day they discovered photography, first as models, then playing with a camera.
