Photographer’s Note

It has been quite simple :-), I was on business trip in Rwanda and I use one sunday to go to the north of the country, in the area where Diane Fossey lived, and I went with two guides and five soldiers (it was a guerrilla area) looking for gorillas.
Once we found, after 4 hours walking in the forest, I sat with guides in the middle of the group, formed by 4 females and a bunch of kids, making a lot of noise, with "his" surveying the whole from the side of the area. I spent about three hours sitting there, and you can imagine how wonderful moments they have been.

Wonderful shot. The important thing was to have the eyes in focus and you seem to have achieved that well. Obviously any talk of distracting backgrounds etc is totally meaningless with a shot like this.
Some notes to explain how you got this would be great. They don't have to be in English - Italian does work :-)
