Who are you? why do you look like the way you do? The curious mind of a child. I met this little boy in Rwanda. He perhaps had never seen a foreigner before, let alone an asian looking one. He keep looking at me and followed me, shyly looked away when i tried to engage him. He sat on the pew in front of me but kept looking back at me. Too shy to smile. Until, he felt comfortable enough to look straight at me and allow me to take his picture. All throughout, we spoke through our eyes…..no words….but ….. we were friends

    Thanks everyone. I really value your comments. Why is the next best moment to capture apart from happiness, is sadness? The intensity of it? Or am I just good at looking at things half empty?
