November 8, 2015 #Kumasi #ghana

Andrews Oteng is a 12 year old traditional drummer who plays as part of a royal ensemble. I met him yesterday at the Manhyia Palace, Kumasi.

I gave him my camera to make pictures of me behind his drums. Impressed, I asked him to take the camera for a spin. His engagement with his subjects and compositions were very impressive.

I saw myself in Andrews. We barely realize our potential until we are given access.

I have dedicated my Instagram account today to share Andrews’ photos. This is however the final image from Andrews I will be posting. Good evening!
