Needless to say I was very surprised and excited that they requested the best 15 pictures of my Zanzibar collection for a Photo Essay to be published on their site – and here it is:

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.
