“Awaits Her Warrior”

_HMG0778
TANZANIA Through Harold’s Lens:

The Serengeti’s late afternoon sun cast long black shadows through the sharp thorn fence surrounding her village.

Menacing black spikes grew in front of her on the vast bare earth.

The Maasai woman stood absolutely iron statue still for hours outside the front door of her one room circular home built with mud, grass, wood and cow dung. Her eyes were focused to the East.

She was waiting for her warrior husband to return from the veld.

    • Thanks Pablo. At first I could not figure out what she was doing. She was standing so still. I looked where she was looking and did not see anything but the wide open veld. I asked my guide. He answered my question as I fired away.
