While showing the production crew of Globe Trekker’s Nigeria episode around Balogun and Jankara markets as a local informant, I snapped this moment between one of their producers and a toddler belonging to a market vendor.

@Kemi – Thanks! I loved the moment too.
This is entirely too precious. What a wonder shot.
@Michaela – Thanks!
That picture is so amazing. I love how you capture the moment so succinctly.
@Lily – Thanks!
Love this shot, Lola! And congrats!
@Ify – Thanks! Again, all behind the scenes stuff.
@Andi – It was one of those moments that photos can’t really do justice to. Thanks!
@Terri – Thanks! “Made in America Black”…that’s a new one 😉 I love Nigeria. Obviously it’s my hometown but there’s a certain energy and vivaciousness to it that can only be experienced in person. It always leaves a deep mark. Hope you do visit once the opportunity comes along.
This is a nice photo. In the past I’ve never been interested in going to Nigeria. But, in recent years I’ve had no less than 5 people approach me asking if I’m Nigerian. And, I’m like, “No. I’m a made in America Black.” I’ve also had my father’s DNA traced through African Ancestry and supposedly it’s traced back to Yoruba our of West Africa. So now…I want to go. 🙂
This is such a stunning capture!
This is such a lovely shot. Look at that face. And Globe Trekker?! Congrats!!
@Janine – Thanks!
@Audrey – Thanks and great to hear from you! Need to catch up on all your travels and Uncornered Market news as well.
I love this shot, Lola.
Love this shot and the expression on the toddler’s face. Just precious. A perfect way to end my day looking at this.
@Ekua – Thanks! No on-screen appearances. Just helped them with information, story ideas, and locales while on the ground in Lagos. All behind the scenes 😉
Nice shot! And so cool that you were involved in an episode of Globe Trekker! Will you be making an appearance on the show?
