Leaving Zanzibar

I was somehow desperate, leaving Zanzibar, to capture some images of these beautiful people. These are all done on the quick sly; hence the blur.

Goodbye to the beach!


In the shuttle to the airport, I snapped quite a few. Here is the dalla dalla with the loader who rides the back, collects fare and gives the driver a few slaps on the truck indicating to stop or go. Happy also to get a snap of coal bags, up top.


Eager for an ox/bull/donkey cart shot, I found these kids who'd been led into the ditch for a quick bite.


Blurry, but you see the girls here, and the guys. I have even more love for scarves and bikes now. Scarves protect us from many things - cold, sun, eyes. A woman or girl who is covered preserves herself and her dignity, here.











What I appreciate most is African people's focus on the work of daily life and on the well being of others.
