I, for one, am glad you are able to combine your travel, work and photography. This is a visually captivating portrait as well as a intriguing window to another land and culture. Without your photographic skills and willingness to share, the rest of us might never have the opportunity to experience a Mary Kay party in South West Ethiopia.
