'Three kids and a camera', Northern Rwanda.

It’s funny the shots you end up liking isn’t it?
I just love this shot.
It’s taken in a remote area of Rwanda.
Kind of a scary area actually. (Remind me to tell you why one day).
Anyway, these kids were blown away that I had a camera.
And yes…blonde hair.

Their energy and pure fascination was just so raw.

So, I like the shot. I really do.

    this is such a wonderful shot – feels so pure – full of enegry and wonderment – i love the various expressions here – yet they all share the expression of curiosity and fun – just brilliant.

    wonderful shot! we have a program running on Brit TV at the moment called, “long way down” with Ewan McGregor, the film actor, riding a motorbike through africa, and they just visited Rwanda and filmed some of the survivors of some of the massacres – horrific!

    Hi, yep I have seen Blood Diamond. Brilliant film. Prior to being in Rwanda I spent some time in Democratic Republic of Congo. Blood Diamond describes Congo very very accurately.
