Hans Silvester








I adore these images. Over a period of 6 years, renowned photographer Hans Silvester photographed peoples of the Omo Valley, Ethiopia. The Surma and Mursi Tribes take great pleasure in decorating themselves with the glorious pigments available in this volcanic region.

You can see more of his work in his book, Natural Fashion: Tribal Decoration from Africa.
