School Children

There was a small primary school near where we worked in Red Bays. So on a couple days, we went over there for recess and poked around the school. The teachers gave us all the access we wanted, which would generally not happen in America--at least not until you fill out some paperwork and talk to half the administration. So I was taking some portraits of the kids and they all started fighting their way toward the camera, pulling each other away to get to the very front. Also, they all wore blue uniforms and the school was painted solid yellow and green. Everything in Gainesville now looks so bland compared to the color there.

I absolutely love it. I'm having so much fun working hard, learning a lot, getting better etc. Jackson is kinda a lame place, so I go to ann arbor sometimes on the weekends. I want new cameras!!
