Taken during my trip to Ethiopia, across Bahir Dar and Gondar districts, and villages around. Its interesting that i did not ask to take this classic pose, but people just usual to pose this way because of old school Large format film cameras photographers still use there in studies.
for the @juliank portrait photography contest

Haha yes, it’s definitely always a relief not to see a selfie pose!!
Ethiopia has been a very nice trip to get to know different cultures and to photograph them. I really am curious about their other work.
what a beautiful portrait and what a wonderful view. this is meaningful .. congratulations :)
I wish your fingertips hit your thumb!

Back in days people usually didn’t know how to pose, long line of “old time” photographers almost trained most of us to stand still, lol...great photo.
Beautiful shot! We're adding this to the @photofeed page. Congrats!
Unbelievably stunning photography. Thank you for sharing this :-)

Great picture! :)
WOW I just love the bnw contrast.
The amount of emotions captured in this photo is amazing. Great shot.
Very cool picture. The B&W really makes it great.
I really like this portrait of a young Ethiopian girl. It is simple and treated in a documentary way. The context is present but without taking precedence over this girl. By just bringing a touch of environment. I know your love of black and white and the use of the film and I see its interest here. This image could have been taken in the last century.
que hermoso <3
So beautiful. I'm still new on my journey as a photographer and you are definitely inspiring. Thank you for sharing your art.
