I took this picture in the meat market in Stone Town – right then an there I wish I had a less intrusive camera – the place felt a little hostile and the smell of the dangling meat did not make me feel any more comfortable. I think that is the reason I like the picture as I find it depicts that tense atmosphere…

While passing through a narrow corridor in Stone Town, Zanzibar, I spotted a couple of kids playing and laughing at the entrance of a building. One kid was hanging from the door, smiling mischievously into the camera. This is one of those pics shot whilst walking past an intriguing scene – it is a bit blurred around the edges, but the smile is definitively in focus!
