[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Masai people came to visit us in Amboseli National Park, while we were at the public campsite. Even though these people are now quite commercial, it's still special to see how they live without any material items. Houses of clay and no electricity. Not my idea of a good living, but they seem to enjoy it.

I like this image because of the layout using the rule of thirds to place the two people in the bottom right part of the picture which balances the composition perfectly. Colours could be a bit punchier though.
