Proof that the words that go with the pictures can be just as important as the pictures themselves

Ask youself, when you read the caption, do you feel the urge to click on the link and see the picture?

Do you know who this is? A living legend of East Africa – 100-years old drummer, singer, herbalist and “rebel”, a Muslim who often goes without her veil and loves smoking cigarettes. Most entertaining line: “I’m not afraid of all these white people, I’ve crapped in every toilet in Europe!” More images from the day I spent with her in the link. (Jenny Lynn Walker)

I rest my case.

  1. Thanks for the appreciation, Ben. When you have a character as “big” as hers, it makes caption writing entertaining and a lot easier! I was fascinated by her character, I think that also helps. Such a tiny woman but a real fighter! Can’t help but love her!
