Unforgettable Ethiopia – after trip photo notes – part ii.
Once again, I feel like now is the perfect time to jump the time machine for another series of photographs taken 10 years ago in the hot Ethiopia. In this post i include a little bit more photographs, and less “bla-bla”. Finally, that the photograph should speak for itself, not a long comment or description of what you see here. And this time you will see people from the team that I joined as behind the scenes photographer.
Well, there’s a little “blah blah” I’d like to add to this visual narrative. In response to the very popular debate about AI and how it might dramatically impact the need for cameras and the role of a photographers to capture moments and invest their time and resources to be in the right place at the right time with the right equipment. Just try to imagine that I’ll make a confession to you that I created all these images using AI. Honestly, I don’t know the names of the AI platforms that create photos. It’s, embarrassing. Well, not really. :-))




















If you haven’t done it yet – please check my recently made photo slide show. These photographs of my good friend Nomi i photographed with both Ricoh GRii and the 15 years old old work-horse Canon 5d mkii cameras during the night session in the white dunes. Naomi is amazing Fire Art artist. take a look and preferably on large monitors, please.
And, additionally, my last photozine “Isolated in 2020″” is still available on the Blurb store. I photographed the images in the far 2020, during the second (or third) massive isolation due to the only known by our government methods to combat the pandemic. It was a Holidays time and our offices were closed, so the only thing I had to do was staying at home and walking around my village and taking images.
