kid_camera_rwanda photography workshop 2006

The kids familiarize themselves with the Nikon D70.

This is the second day of the kid_camera_rwanda Photo Workshop and we're all having a blast! The finished project will be a little book about life at the orphanage, as depicted by them. Let me know if you'd like to contribute to the project's funding. All proceeds from the sale of the book will go to the Gisimba Memorial Center when more than 150 children live. Any questions about Gisimba Memorial Center, don't hesitate to email me.

    Such a wonderful idea! What truly vital work you are doing! I just visited Ecuador and took some photos of former street kids playing soccer--just so they could see themselves. They loved it! When I let them take some pictures, they made tons of funny faces. Keep up the great work!

    World class capture. Perfect frame & composition, backkground excellent, subject perfect and exposed well, only thing it lacks is a clear focus. I respect and admire you work, and it's the only reason I give you a raft of shit about the lack of focus. Check is in the mail.
