For the Suri people the cattle camp is part of the lifestyle and is mainly cared for by men. Therefore the boys of the tribe start to learn pastoral farming skill from a young age. The Suri in the Omo Valley of Ethiopia don’t really eat cattle but milk is a main food source. Men normally don’t wear anything in cattle camp. They rub their body with ash, soil, and even cattle dung before sunrise.
As long as I can remember, I have been deeply passionate about travel photography. Despite my enthusiasm, I longed to refine my photography skills to reflect my creative vision more professionally. The pivotal moment in my artistic journey occurred when I had the fortune of meeting Ms. Partikel, an inspiring instructor, during a course at the renowned Prague School of Photography. When I am out with my camera, I am so focused that I forget everything around me and lose all sense of time. To sum it up: „Photography makes me happy and is balm for my soul.“
