Gondar, Ethiopia
After getting completely lost on the way to the 'angel ceiling' church, we stumbled across another church celebrating St. Mary's day. They invited us to join them in their community meal - as often happens in Ethiopia, we were welcomed with open arms. This man helped serve the food and drink and finally had a chance to sit down and eat. As we were leaving, he asked if I would take his picture. This is one of my favorite portraits from the trip.
