This was one of the first Masai children I saw on our trip to Kenya. We got to spend some time in a Masai village and there were lots of children running and playing outside as the sun was close to setting, but this child just stopped and looked at me. He appeared to be about 2 years old and was dressed in this bright red shirt. There was something very special about him that I can’t seem to put into words, but I think this image tells its own story.

This photo was taken with a Canon EOS 40D, EF17-40mm f/4L lens, 1/400 sec at f/4, ISO 200 on SanDisk Extreme IV Digital Film.
