He was so proud of...

Masai Village, Kenya view map

In Masai Village, people are so proud of their big ear holes - the bigger the better.
In order to let us know how big his ear hole is,
this man put a plastic film casing into his ear hole.

Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder. Wonderful capture of the rich traditions and culture of the Masai. Hope they never let them go.

Certainly a novel way to carry around film. Thanks goodness it's only 35mm. Great portrait with this pose and expression. "V"

An interesting portrait. I wonder where they get their bright coloured clothing from too. Well done.
