I made these pictures during a short stay in Kenya. I was able to
make portraits of many children without any preparation. It's more
like sequential shooting. I tried to catch the eye and identify the
nature of each child. Most of the children smiled at me and were
very friendly, despite the difficult conditions of their lives.

Here is a little bit about myself. I used to be a doctor by profession, I am currently engaged in business. I have been interested in photography for a long time, but I have got a lot of pictures in the last four years, when I began to travel. Traveling influences on my approach to photography. My pictures are moments snatched from life. I do not make my living by taking pictures, but I try to do my best and I have a serious approach to it as it deserves.
