[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Me and Mangoman where heading to the north of Uganda. A place where people try to pick up their daily life after years of conflict and terror. Besides the road to Lira we saw these kids hanging around a school and being curious what a white man is doing with his Canon EOS 40d.

Hello Perry.
This is excellent.

Really well taken.

Hello Perry,

first thing that came to my mind when I saw this image was...Africa in their eyes. Amazing...

You have managed to create very 'powerful' shot that transmits very well the sense of dramatism. B/W with high contrast and the composition add much to this feeling. Wonderful DOF and focus.

Great work.

Best regards,

Stasa
