Two Senegalese men who approached me while I was in a taxi cab. The cab was stopped because of a huge religious demonstration that was blocking the road. These two men were part of the demonstration and wanted money from me. They explained to me that the demonstration had something to do with a religious leader who, at some point in the past, was exiled to Gabon, but eventually returned. I gave them a little money but insisted on taking their picture in return. I am using a little Sony Point and Shoot because my DSLR is in the States right now.

I like this Sean. I know there will be some stupid comments that you'll probbaly get by people who "know better than we do;" i.e. cropping, blah, blah, blah, etc., but this is good. Nice capture. Hope all is well. Chris PS - Check out www.jpgmag.com and check out some of my pics on there... better site... more supportive, less ass holes.
