IMG_7436 Uwera 31/100 strangers
I took this image for my 100 strangers project.
Uwera is a 27 year old journalist from Rewanda. She is living in Liverpool and seeking asylum.
I spoke to here in an art exhibition at the Open Eye Gallery. She has an interest in photography and is hoping to start a course in photography in September at Liverpool University.
Her primary language is Kinyarwanda the national language of Rewanda. We struggled a little with language but managed enough to establish she uses a canon 5d mark 4 - better and newer than mine - but I felt a bit happier as she only has a zoom lens for it!
It is the better of two shots I just wish I had composed it better being critical I have cut part of her hand of.
