Sunset from Mount Entoto ...

It was kinda difficult manouvering to get a good spot for photographing the sunset, but I tell you, once you do find it, it's well worth the trek...Catching a sunset upon this mountain, overlooking the city of Addis Ababa is simply a breathtaking experience..!

Sibling Support...

This is a scene I noticed everywhere...a very admirable warmth between siblings, friends, schoolmates, even co-workers. I'll dig up a few more o' these as I'm sure I took more than one. It's a very pleasant sight to see; the closeness amongst Ethiopians. Very encouraging.

Another Little Girl...

Continuing my series on the young and innocent ones in Addis Ababa, this shot was taken whilst out shopping in the Piazza district of town. This little girl (ssoooo cute!) was running around freely playing while her mum in between shopping and picking up various groceries was frantically trying to keep her at bay...

Off to School...

I wasn't too happy with the outcome of this shot as it's kinda blurred. Again, I was in a moving car. I saw these happy little ones on their way to school one morning. They all looked really cute,forming a little chain by their hands - a very common sight here - kids are always holding hands! Cute, simply cute...

Keeping an Eye Out...

Most of the parking attendants tend to double as Security guards as well at most of the popular coffee shops - or is it the other way around - the security guards at most of the coffee shops and restaurants tend to be very helpful when it comes to customer parking. This shot was taking as I sat outside Kaldi's Coffee shop...needless to say Kaldi's is a regular joint of mine.

'Twas the Night Before Christmas...'

I couldn't really take my camera into the night service during the Ethiopian Christmas, as I wasn't too sure if it was allowed. But I managed a few shots outside afterwards...this one being my favourite.
