Ababda - Bedouins of the Eastern Desert
black and white photography

.............

.............

On the horizon bare mountains tops are visible, a huge orange colored sun sinks behind their peaks. Then darkness falls very quickly, a cold night sets in. The sky with its countless bright stars is overwhelmingly beautiful. Until daybreak, no foreign sound breaks the silence of the desert. At five o’clock in the morning the sun rises again above the grey lagoon and another day begins.
