This is great Oisin. Saw it on flickr a few days ago but thought I'd wait until you put it on here to comment. Such a poignant image - a humourous and touching slice of family life against the backdrop of national history. A brilliant piece of photojournalism - certainly one of your very best shots so far.

I heard a good story about a church in a little town called San Rafael today. I cycled through the other day but didn't visit the church. Inside is a mural of the devil, painted 100 years ago. It's now nicknamed "The Prophecy" because el diablo bares a reportedly strikingly resemblance to Daniel Ortega.

To many others I've met Daniel is a hero. I imagine this cyclist feels that way and therefore didn't want me taking the picture.
