A bend in the Omo river, a photo from Southern, South

Photographer's Note

The Omo river snakes backwards and forwards through its eponymous valley, inhabited by a number of pasturist tribes. If this view looks familiar its because it is probably the most photographed bend in the river. At the top of a steep mud bank there is a Karo village which is frequently visited by 4WDs taking tourists like me, with their cameras to visit these people.

Bonjour, cher Stephen,
L'on mesure à travers la composition la vaste étendue des lieux.
Cette rivière, qui se sépare en deux, forme un demi-cercle apparent du plus bel effet. La végétation est luxuriante.
Et pour couronner le tout, le ciel est splendide.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hello Stephen

Beautiful view of this river in the flat area. It looks like in somewhere in the Amazonas. Jungl e till the horizon, no signs of any villages or other peoples activity.

best regards Malgo

Hi Steve
A spectacular photo of this wide bend in the river. Am I right in assuming that it flows into the Nile?
cheers
