This little girl is caught in the middle of 2 different worlds: head cover and Harvard Tshirt probably given to her by some NGO.
Kids love to have their photo taken. I preferred the days before digital cameras because now they grab your camera, put their fingers everywhere, accidently change one setting or two, and do not quite understand that you cannot give them a copy if the image right there.
On a hot day in the Hadramaout, streets are empty. Everybody stays in but when they see tourists with a camera, they quickly come out and wave.
These guys are not very old and already -like most men in Yemen - carry guns that make them look proud if nothing else.
