"This girl from Harar watched me with curiosity as I snapped pictures of the butcher and his wife. As she lingered behind me with a gaggle of friends, I imagined her saying, "Why on earth would you take pictures of goat carcasses covered in flies, when there are beautiful girls waiting to be captured?" When I turned around to greet her, she surprised me by stepping forward and boldly asking to be photographed. Her face was such a wonderful mix of wit and sauciness – and the gold tooth was just too fabulous for words."
Raouf: she is not that shy! She is proud of her golden tooth, glittering, when she moves her sensual lips into a smile.
She is full of colours: her brown face, her bit darker shadier lips, her greenish- bluish "tarha" around the pretty face over part of the head.
I could imagine certain boys - where she lives -had experienced kissing her golden tooth! What a sensation, for them and for her!
How did the photographer catch the tooth in the middle of all the colors surrounding her and the girl?
THIS PHOTO IS FROM PERSEPHONE's COLLECTION FROM HER TRIP IN ETHIOPIA
I AM HOPING TO DO A NEW ADVENTURE OF WRITING that I comment on her photo and she adds a comment!!
P TOOK THE PHOTO AND I TOLD HER THAT I LIKE THEM AND WOULD LIKE TO COMMENT. SHE IS GENEROUS AND ADVENTUROUS ALSO!
TWO EYES, TWO CULTURES, ONE PHOTO!
