President Sirleaf giving peace.

I shot this photo in 2013 at the Measuagoon fundraising banquet in Monrovia, Liberia. The shot was taken while President Sirleaf made her rounds to give greetings and thanks to the guests who showed up that night. I was the only photographer that evening. God blessed me with this awesome capture.
