I simply had more fun that I would have ever imagined (simply because I never would have imagined it to start with) during my four day train ride from Zambia to Dar es Saleem was when the train would stop and villagers would just pour out of their homes to come greet everyone on the train. Not at stations — in the middle of nowhere.
And kids everywhere love posing for photos…

Africa was a place where I learned about so many odd things, couldn’t wait to leave at the end and… simply cannot wait to go back to this totally unique place.
I think a lot of 2013 is going to be spent there.

This kids are so cute. Did you ask them why they always like posing for photos?

Kids everywhere just seem to like to see themselves in the screen after you take their pic.
They do look like they are loving to pose for you. It sounds like a lot of fun … love photographing children. It’s more fun to photograph them when they aren’t posing, but even posing they can be very engaging.
So much more fun than photographing adults, in my opinion.

I like it mainly because, unlike adults, they don’t say no to taking their photo.
Love it! You are so right that kids love posing for photos, no matter where you are in the world.

Errich feel free to visit Uganda.
This really shows how kids are alike all over the world — whether black or white, rich or poor, kids act the same in front of a camera. Good photo!

Hi Micheal,nice to see you exploring the continent,looking to read your book about your adventures.
Africa is a continent I would love to visit. These children look so beautiful and happy. Children hamming it up for the camera. This made me smile. Thank you.
It is a strange and magical place for sure.
