[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Am preparing to move out to Madagascar in Jan and have been reading up on malagasy photographers. One of them, Pierrot Man i greatly admire for his bw photography and so here i am practising in the Gambia. I was on a minibus stuck in traffic on the way back from a nature reserve when i spotted this boy on his bike. I pointed my 80-400 IS sigma lens out of the window and quickly snapped him before we moved on. Took as raw, converted to bw sharpened after resizing.

What a photo ! :) A very nice portrait, this young boy on his bike with a flat tyre... May be a little bit too much sharpened ?
Congrats,
