Ethiopia 3

Ethiopia 3 by babasteve.
Driving from Asmara-Eritrea to Addis Ababa-Ethiopia, we passed a group of women carryng their earthenware water jugs in their backs. This one had such beauty, rpide, and dignity in her face in spite of her clothing.

Nikon FM2 / 85mm Nikon lens

i am a research associate and communications specialist with a research organization outside of atlanta. they focus primarily on ethnographic and worldview studies. my speciality, however, is in communication: traditional, etc., observing what communicates and what doesn't, the flow of information, non-formal and traditional education, entertainment, etc., with a mjor emphasis on oral cultures. it's all very interesting and i love it. gives me great opportunity to pursue my passion for photography.
