    Two Konso Princes

    Two of the boys in the water hole are the Konso king's sons, while the third one is their cousin (I don't know who is who here). The Konso are a small ethnic group that lives in south-western Ethiopia; there are around 5 000 of them. The area is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

    I took this shot a few years ago and was never 100% happy with it, so I spent some time reworking it this morning.

    Interesting environmental shot, Manfred. When I opened this in Lytebox, it crops about 2/3rds off the foreground and lowers the top edge to just above the little green tree in the centre just above the wall. I think that still preserves the context and brings the boys and the wall's texture to the viewer's attention.
