Though I don't think twice about looking ridiculous when I photograph stray dogs or cups of coffee, I get pretty shy about approaching people to take their picture. As a result, there aren't a lot of portraits in my photography collection. However, while traveling in the mountainous kingdom of Lesotho, I found people so friendly and approachable that I had no difficulty asking them to take their picture.
And I'm definitely glad I did, because those kids knew how to work a pose.
