Out in the Serengeti.
An authentic village- and back in the early 1990s it was seldom visited.

Nice portrait Charlie.
Those glasses...they match perfectly but somehow still seem incongruous.
LensCrafters of Arusha?

Or perhaps a tourist who traded for a bead necklace? (Not me, though .)
Glad you like the shot, Scott.

How many times has this picture been posted? I seem to remember seeing this exact one in the past.

Sometimes I revisit photographs I posted a year or more ago and apply some additional processing procedures I've learned in the interim.
And sometimes I convert them to B&W.
And sometimes when people say nothing about the image-
or the environment where it was taken-
or possible improvements in my processing-
And there's the often quick turnover in who makes comments on the particular boards-
and the realization that the vast percentage of people who look at this will have never seen it before-
well, I might post certain images more than once.
And even though you make no mention of the photograph or the woman or the odd presence of her sunglasses or the fact that the shot was taken in an authentic Maasai village in the Serengeti--- well, thanks for keeping track of my posts . Sometimes I don't keep careful track- especially after my 10,000th post .

PS- I just reviewed some posts I made on this forum:
I posted this image 12 months ago- and particularly asked for advice on how to improve my technique re getting some detail on a contrasty slide conversion of a pic of a very black-skinned woman whose face is partly in shadow.
I got one reply.
It wasn't from you .

Striking picture, Charlie. I remember it from last time. It's so good nobody commented.
