ENTRY DESCRIPTION
I took the image, Egyptian Boys, as I walked down the street in Luxor, Egypt. I originally stopped to take a photo of someone else and the two boys who were looking for shoes to shine. They motioned to me that they too wanted their picture taken, so I took it. They were very charming young kids. The photo was taken with my Hasselblad 503 camera.
