Photo title: Two boys in Haydom, Tanzania

Photographer: Jean Gratz, University of Virginia

Description: The project focus is childhood malnutrition and enteric diseases. I took the photo at a home within our field site in Haydom Tanzania. The boys were very keen to have there photo taken but a bit shy too. I like the photo because the boys look both strong and vulnerable.
