A gas station worker pumps fuel into a Rutas de America bus as a chicken looks for food, near Pamplona, Colombia, November 8, 2017. Carlos Garcia Rawlins: "We stopped to refuel the bus and although the passengers did not get off except those who urgently needed to use the restrooms, I had agreed with the driver that I would get off at every opportunity to take pictures. This time, there was a chicken pecking at the gas station floor in search of food and creating a peculiar scene, almost something out of the Latin American magic realism".
