pride

A young girl from the Himba tribe in Kaokoveld, Namibia.

The young Himba girls wear their hair in delicate braids over the eyes until they get 15 years old. At this age the girls get their sexual maturity (in the believing of the Himbas), so from that on the men can see their eyes.

Her look is like - don't have a better word at hand: dynamite. Together with the gesture, it's a docu portrait of rarely seen impact.
