On the road north of Isiolo

Young men of the road north of Isiolo

On the road north from Isiolo, Eastern Province, Kenya, December 2007.

These young men were paused beside the road, the two boys standing engaging me with their eyes, the other two in natural sculpted poses, seemingly in contemplation. There is a visual connection here between past and present in the way they are dressed. A The richness of their skin colour, the blue and orange clothing, and blue sky make this one of my favourite images.
