Description:
Capturing a person’s integrity and humanity is something I’ve always strived to do.  But it can be challenging to execute.  When I took this picture of Ntate Peter, on an early morning in the mountains of Lesotho at a small village of Ha Sekahtsi, his integrity and humanity reverberated through him, forming a cloak and offering this to me with no challenge at all.  What a rare gift he has given me by simply being himself.
