Kenya: Inside a Masai village
On our press trip, the Kenya Tourist Board arranged for us to visit a Masai village in the south of the country. Even though the KTB paid for us to take photos, it still felt awkward and intrusive to be pointing our cameras in the villagers' faces.
Still, it was irresistible to photograph the Masai in their very different world.
Elijah, who went to a mission school, is 26 and unmarried and so still has his hair.
It's a different story for this shaved-head family.
The "big poppa" of them all in this village of 72 people has nine wives.
