He closed the door on me. RIght after this image was taken. Very slowly. Always still staring at the woman who was staring back at him through a camera lens. I had permission to spontaneously make photos that day in Belize, and out of the corner of my eye I noticed someone small was checking me out. I was enthralled with his expression, and to this day I look and I wonder what he was thinking.
