Saturday night we headed out to the first night of music at Baaba Maal's Blues du Fleuve concert. The stage, in the middle of a large soccer stadium in Senegal, was raised and well lit. We settled into some seats maybe 400 yards from the stage, but I wanted to get closer to photograph. I hadn't brought my longest lenses, figuring I'd let my legs do the zoom work.
I had a pass allowing good access, but I know from experience that's not always a lock. In this case, the security guy pictured above started looking at me kind of in the way he's looking in the picture. I was near a few other photographers, but it was me he started to approach. I thought he was coming over to ask me to go back to my seat. Instead, he asked if I'd take his picture. No problem, I replied in French, and smiled.
