Just what I was thinking. Esther ran a curio stall on the roadside at Kiboko, on the Mombasa-Nairobi highway. She also traded in second-hand clothes. When I disposed of some of mine in return for animal carvings, I think she mostly got the better end of the deal. A very smart young woman. It was her idea that I take the photo in front of the local cafe’s zebra frieze.
nice for smile…
and you could have called this post many things
– like momma love
– Joy –
etc.
but the names made it all personal and elevated the subjects.
also- there is that triangle in the subject outline/shape – maybe even that pyramid with the finger coming out at us – just a cool shot with the zebra art too
That is such a mom photo. Every single mom has made that ‘pointing to the camera gesture’ and told their child to “smile.” I probably should be the cover photo to the family photo album. A sweet reminder to my son’s early childhood!

Simply outstanding, Miss Tish!
Am taking a bow, Ark. Thank you kindly 🙂
I wonder where they are now 🙂

I agree with you, she seems to have gotten the better end of the deal
So beautiful! 🙂 🙂

That’s a lovely comment.
Beautiful Smiles!!!!!
Just had to smile back at this lovely lady
Love this smiling capture. 💖
🙂
So well posed that they almost seem part of the wall art. Certainly smile-worthy. 🙂
Posed and yet not posed 🙂
Positioned?
That’s better 🙂
Endearing portrait! Love that you took it in front of a mural of zebras!
That was Esther’s idea. She was very definite about it 🙂
