An AFM soldier gives directions to a Somali refugee woman in front of the Office of the Prime Minister at Castille Place in Valletta.
This was a lucky and hastily grabbed shot as I was walking back to my office from an assignment. Camera was at the ready, as it usually is, I saw what I felt was an interesting scene unfolding in front of me, and I quickly lifted the camera and shot a couple of frames. It’s not perfect, the head of a passer-by in the foreground bothers me a bit, but that’s the sort of thing you’re likely to have to deal with in this snatch-and-grab type of photography.
