Most of the time, I don't really want people staring into the lens of my camera.  With children, it doesn't really matter -- because you get an honest image that tells something about the subject.  My example is below:  Mayan Indian children at a rural school in Chimaltenango, Guatemala.  As school children, they are curious as school children should be.  Their curiosity is reflected in every face.  Who is this with a camera?  What is he doing at my school?  What is this all about?  Why is he taking our picture?

|  |  |  |  |  | I'm very pleased with the above photograph, not because  it's technically a masterpiece or anywhere close -- but it tells a great  story-- an after all, isn't that what photography is about?
