Hi Christiane,
The atmosphere is very well captured here! Having worked in Africa, I can understand how strange it must have been for those boys to suddenly see white people! Have a look at this note and you'll have a better perception on how they might have felt ;-).
I like your composition! A mix between curiosity and boredom, not that much to see and do in the average African village - and with a white person around it's never certain which of those two emotions will prevail. Have to say, it is quite overexposed and there is something in the left bottom corner that shouldn't have been in front of the lense. But it gives a good atmosphere!
Greetings, Dennis
