Omo Valley photography Tour with Wisdom Ethiopia !

The extraordinarily diverse country of Ethiopia is home to some of the last true tribal people in all of Africa and has become famous for its extraordinary tribal photography potential. In the south west of Ethiopia lies the Omo Valley, a living anthropological treasure of spectacular people including the Hamer, Suri, Dassanech, Karo, Nyangatom and Mursi tribes. In the face of their ever changing world, each of these tribes is struggling to maintain their traditions of dress, dance, decoration and way of life. A visit to Ethiopia’s Omo Valley is to visit a world that is fast disappearing. A world of beauty, diversity and strength that has vanished from great tracts of Africa.

Collectively the Omo Valley people draw inspiration from the wilderness that surrounds them and this is reflected in their varying styles of traditional dress.

. . The women of the Nyangatom tribe are easily recognizable by their large colorful necklaces. Although there are other tribes that wear similar ones none are as big. In the past these necklaces were made of animal bones or wood and were of a more natural brown color. These days colorful plastic is taking over as the preferred choice for most women. Scars on the face and body is also common amongst the Nyangatom women who view this practice as a sign of beauty and strength. The Nyangatom, originally from Sudan, are not known for their friendliness and are in fact feared by many other tribes. . .

Game Boundary

Yanomami tribe

https://www.survivalinternational.org/tribes/yanomami

Bacaja Tribe Village, Brazil 

Some tribes don’t have a physical wall or any form of boundary and decide for a more open space. For a game and having the player easily understand the boundaries of their environment, I think a wall of some kind, whether that be a wall of thick trees or a constructed wood wall better represents the boundary better to the player.  

This is from an African Tribe but they have a constructed wooden wall around the compound of structures to act as protection from animals and other hostile things. For a game, I think a physical wall the player can see, it would be far more obvious and understanding to have a physical boundary that stops the player from leaving the playable area. 

This tribe also has these walls inside the outer wall, offering even more protection to the more important aspects of the tribe, this could also act as a way to store animals that they use for food. 

This is one is also of a African Tribe located in Uganda but they took a different approach that I think is quite interesting looking, and if I find it interesting maybe that’ll translate for the player finding it interesting. Anyway, I can’t find any solid reason they constructed it that way but it looks as if it is more private, like small estates encloses, maybe each family has their own encloses space?

write what i like

In media, tribes have these high walls of wooden, spiked logs. I think these demonstrate to the viewer a primitive technology stage and the viewer can easily get a understanding of what “it” is.  

King Kong: Skull Island

King Kong (2005) the tribes’ wall is constructed around a stone ruin, this stone wall can be seen to have many wooden structures on it to help with support and traversal. Though I do like the idea of having an even older ruin than one that was there before the tribe was there, I prefer the look of the wooded, spiked logs looks. I think this has a more traditional feel then with the stone ruins, as the next question is, who built this stone structure?

Dear friends 

Thank you very much for contacting me choosing my tribal contact experience services yes I am available and very happy to give you my reputed services in the best of ways to suit your interests, You have a great time to explore and learn more a way of life through the remote villages of the Omo River Valley Tribes, camping with Tribes I highly suggest as well. 

This is an extraordinary opportunity to meet some of the more remote ethnic groups of the fascinatingly diverse areas surrounding the Omo River in South West Ethiopia. While the Omo Valley is an area which has been on the “tourist radar” for several years, the vast majority of visitors to the region find themselves unable to escape the “4WD circuit” which has arisen. 

This comprehensive itinerary visits some of the region’s better known tribes but also spends a day walking through the Buska Mountains following a remote village trail and camping for two nights in the wild close to the villages of Buska and Kufur. Be warned, this is not an easy journey at times and there will be some basic conditions; it will surely be a journey to challenge the senses. 

   Whilst in this fascinating region we aim to learn about the varied ethnic groups who inhabit the region - from the Mursi, renowned for their lip-plates, the Konso famous for their terraced farming to the Hamer famous for their bull jumping coming of age ceremony. This is a unique itinerary in an unforgettable part of the world.

Highlights:

Meeting (amongst many) the Dorze, Ari, Bana, Hamer, Karo Surma, Nyangatom Dasenech tribes people of the delta near Lake Turkana Mursi peoples. 

Experiencing the weekly markets at Key Afer, Dimeka and Turmi

Walking through the remote Buska Mountains

Camping wild next to tribal villages

OMO VALLEY TOURS AND THE SOUTH

The Omo Valley tours of Ethiopia is part of the Southern Nations and Nationalities Peoples Area (SNNPR) and is a remarkably isolated area of the country, famous for its native people or tribes. There are close to 40 tribes in the zone, many of who are staying as they have existed for millennia. It is these groups that we have come to photograph-- in their villages, the bush, roadside, and local markets. 

The Danakil desert (accessed from Mekele) is the hottest place on Earth and we intend to visit Ahmedila for its ancient trade in salt using camel caravans and the Dallol volcano which manifests itself through geothermal activity at the surface creating bizarre solfataras, small geysers and bright yellow and green sulphuric acid pools on the surface. At dawn and dusk, when it is cooler, this is a photographers paradise.

The Lower Omo Valley is a spectacularly gorgeous area with varied ecosystems consisting of grasslands, volcanic outcrops, and one of the few staying 'immaculate' riverine forests in semi-arid Africa which sustains a wide array of wild animals. he Bodi (Me' en), Daasanach, Kara (or Karo), Kwegu (or Muguji), Mursi and also Nyangatom live along the Omo and depend on it for their resources, having actually created complex socio-economic and ecological methods delicately adjusted to the severe and usually unforeseeable conditions of the area's semi-arid environment. 

The yearly flooding of the Omo River feeds the rich biodiversity of the area and also guarantees the food security of the people particularly as rainfall is reduced as well as irregular. They depend on it to practice 'flood resort farming' utilizing the abundant silt left along with the river financial institutions by the gradually receding waters. They additionally exercise rainfed, changing cultivation growing sorghum, maize, and also beans on the flood plains. Some tribes, specifically the Kwegu, quest video game, and also fish. Cattle, goats, and also sheep are vital to many tribes' livelihood producing blood, milk, meat, and hides. Cattle are very valued and utilized in repayment for the bridewealth. They are an essential protection against starvation when rains as well as plants fall short. In specific seasons families travel to temporary camps to give new grazing for herds, making it through on milk and blood from their livestock. The Bodi sing rhymes to favorite livestock.

Photographer Travels the Globe to Capture ‘The World in Faces’ http://ift.tt/2suWMH6

Alexander Khimushin is a Queensland, Australia-based photographer who has been on the road for 9 years. During that span, he visited 84 countries. 10 months out of a year he’s on the road shooting photos in remote places. He’s currently working on a series titled “The World in Faces.”

“The World in Faces is a project that I started in 2014,” Khimushin tells PetaPixel. “I was writing a story for My Planet TV, a Russian TV channel when I was looking for some pictures of landscapes. I saw there were many portraits from the different places I had visited. I suddenly realized that it was these people who made my travels so unforgettable. I started to recall circumstances behind all the pictures. What if I put it all together?”

Khimushin started assembling the images and ended up with about 200 portraits all over the world. At that very moment, he says, he realized that it was what he should have been doing all along. His project was born, and he began traveling more off the beaten path instead of to popular tourist locations.

The World in Faces project would be “portraits of ordinary, yet extraordinary people around the world.” He wanted to be bold and challenge bias and inequality. Khimushin wants to show the diversity of the world we all are living in through the portraits of people of different ethnicities, primarily ethnic minorities that are disappearing.

“Sometimes I wonder when so many people are there to protect rare species of animals, but not many worry about ethnic groups that are on the edge of extinction,” the photographer says. “I believe it is my mission to photograph them. So basically there are two main drivers for me—tolerance, peace, multiculturalism first, and paying attention and tribute second.”

The World in Faces is in its third year, and Khimushin does not know how long it will continue before he is satisfied. There are more than 10,000 ethnicities in the world, and he would like to bring as many as he can in front of his lens. Being a perfectionist, he covered only half of Siberia in six months after 6 TB of shooting and 15,000 miles driven.

“I want to meet real people in real places, not visiting some countries’ capital cities and take photos of some people wearing carnival costumes,” says Khimushin. He has portraits of people from around 35 countries and about 60 to 70 ethnicities thus far.

Khimushin is a “photographer by soul, adventurer by heart.” In the last two years, he has changed his travel style from backpacking to driving. This way he can shoot till late, as he knows if necessary he can eat and sleep in his SUV.

This has its downsides too as once in the Gobi Desert in Mongolia when he returned to the car at night he realized that he had dropped the keys on the way. Next, he tried to retrace his steps and ended up losing the car. After having spent the night sheltering from the wind in a ditch, the early morning light helped in finding the car keys and he was on the road again as though nothing had happened.

“I realize that I may have only one unique chance to photograph that ethnic minority person,” Khimushin says. “I will never be able to get back to the same place and take another photo of this grandma, who is 93 years old and wearing her ancestor’s clothing especially for me.”

There is a lot of pressure to get it right. A few years back he would shoot just 1-5 frames on average per person, but now it is over 100 frames… or even more.
