Peterson and Samson are 36 and Laikipiak Maasai senior warriors.
“As a warrior I treasure the freedom, the dancing, the singing. This dance is celebrating, cows, warriors, elders.. On this photo I am standing next to Samson, second from the right. I was watching Stevie the photographer and wondering whether we would ever grow a beard as big as his! (Peterson)”
“I am standing on the far right. I remember laughing and was lamenting that we could not jump as high as the youngster jumping. The girls would have eyes only for him. He would win a lady with the height of his jumping. (Samson)”
