Mesa Nayar is one of the larger Cora towns. It is at the cross roads for Santa Teresa and Jesus Maria and on into the Huichol territory. We stopped and took some pictures of the town and then these women appear. Our guide talked them into participating in a photo shot. These type of circumstances are typical of the field work, no posing, no step up , just go for it.
