This is a group of Africans from the Maasai Tribe at the Plaster House. There at the Plaster House, they do Pro--Bono surgeries on kids from 18 years old and younger. Most of their surgeries are either from too much fluoride in their water or from cooking pot-fires.
Africans seldom receive gifts. These kids just received wooden cars from the Pastor & his wife that I went with.
Most Africans have never seen a reflection of themselves. So, I asked the lady in the center if I could take a picture. Their reactions were priceless when I showed them their photo:) The lady in the center knew English; and, she was very interested in the photo. She wanted one; so, I have sent one to Africa to her.
This was taken with a Nikon J1 camera in the creative mode.
