Sudan


I took this photo in Khartoum, Sudan in 2004. I was documenting a historic "good will" soccer match between the Sudanese national team and a team made up of Christian pro players from around the world. The games went great, no riots, and all the players had fun. This woman's face captivated me, so I asked her if it was ok for me to take her portrait. The scars on her face indicate what tribe she is in, and I would say her eyes indicate she's had an amazing life. Please click on the photo to enlarge it.
