Tobaski…

I was asked to help photograph the winners that received a ram for Tobaski. Western Union and other participating banks gave out 450 rams to Gambians which is a huge deal. A young boy that worked very hard to run after the rams and actually carry some really caught my eye. One of a few times I really got emotional when I was talking to him and asked for a picture. The young boy asked for a picture and I promised him I will return with it.

  3. What a fantastic image – cheers for sharing it. Tobaski must be a pretty rum time for goats! You see them everywhere, in the boots of taxis, tied to roof racks…
