PESO:

I'm going to quit working in a few minutes ;-)  But I'm still 
processing these very low light photos and appreciate your comments 
about whether or not they are pushing the edge too much.  This one I 
think shows a little slice of life here.  I've always wondered how 
these couples could have 10 or 12 kids when they lived in a one room 
house.  This is an OLD couple with grandkids and they've both worked 
hard all day in the field and hauling firewood and water and making 
tortillas.  The wife is still roasting coffee beans on the top of the 
stove but when they finally have a chance to sit down, they only have 
eyes for each other.

Maybe I'm reading too much into the photo again because I know the 
people. Comments and criticisms welcome.
