[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I have made this photo unexpectedly. After noisy day, began the holiday of candles in the evening. Many children and adults dress the best orders and leave on the area holding a candle in their hands . Many get acquainted with different people and tell them about the affairs. This boy posed for me in the company of the friends and I have unexpectedly caught this expression on his face.

Alex , you have an amazing eye, an obvious love of people, and a depth and creativity of vision -- and I love how that all comes together in this photo. I feel that you are helping us to see right into the heart and the soul of this young woman of Nigeria. -- Thank you! -- Ellie
