When the boy finished climbing the tree, he asked me to take his picture

Boys I met while strolling through the village of Maligcong, surrounded by terraced rice paddies, began to get excited by the foreigners who appeared without warning. Most of the boys just posed for the camera or made a lot of noise, but some boys were not satisfied.

He took me to the top of a nearby hill and began to climb a tree. When he reached the top of the tree, he asked me to take his picture. Climbing trees is this boy's specialty, and I guess he felt he couldn't express himself in a cool way by simply making a peace sign or something. In that sense, this boy may be very capable of self-production.
