The boy was looking through an Arabic manuscript. He flipped through the pages and stopped on an ornate page. He was in the antique exhibition room at the joint office of @Pedir-Museum and the non-profit organization @Mapesa Aceh, Banda Aceh, Indonesia.
I don't know what's on his mind. Surely, this is part of a smart school that can foster critical thinking skills while also piquing his curiosity and inspiring his creativity. Whatever turmoil is being felt, it is obvious that this is a positive action that is being experienced.
Then he tried to feel the sensation of touching military artifacts and ethnographic objects. Under the direction of the museum curator, he posed like a model which allowed me to capture some photos.

I tried to produce the following Black and White pic with Adobe Photoshop, and I love it! However, are these kinds of pic acceptable in the Black and White community? Hopefully, the curator will offer suggestions.
Taken with: Sony Alpha 7 III camera + Sony FE 50mm F1.8 lens.
