Location
The photo was taken at a busy street at the area of Makerere University in Kampala, Uganda.Time
My collegues and I, around 10 am, were walking across the area to go and visit some professors at the Makerere University, in order to organize a small event about a volunteer and free-of-charge primary health care program from the international organization "World Without Wars and Violence". One of our aspects, was that we rarely could see eldest people at the streets of the houses we visited, due to the low life expectancy (59 y.o.). And then, there he was! An elder man, working in front of his small shop, very calm and quiet in his work, he just sensed me and raised his head for a greeting.Lighting
