Photograph with Caution!

I know that I promised everyone that I would take a lot of pictures… However, I’ve learned that one must exercise caution while he photographs. You must be prepared as the moment you take out your camera you will be surrounded (and perhaps stampeded) by men, women, and children who will want to be in your picture. It is therefore nearly impossible to obtain candid photos and if you don’t like being surrounded then forget it! We experienced this on market day as we walked down the crowded streets of a small village. The kids followed us for miles. Our only saving grace is that sometimes the parents say the “white ghosts” will eat the little children who misbehave. I’m sure you could have guessed that I was designated to be the “crazy scary cat lady” who chased them away; Naomi was our official photographer. She does better in large crowds and has a better camera. Unfortunately I do not have the software to download her beautiful photos so I won’t be able to post them until we get back.
