Street Photography nominee

These photos were taken on a street in a slum in Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, and truly depict the living conditions of the local people. Among them, a boy is practicing juggling the ball seriously, while his neighbors are smiling and watching him. Perhaps one day this boy will realize his dream of becoming a football star and become a pride of the local community. When I met a local girl playing, I wanted to take a photo of her, but she signaled me to wait and then brought her sister over. When the two of them hugged happily together, I pressed the shutter. A priest is displaying his cross. Ethiopia is one of the oldest Christian countries in Africa. Although this is a poor place, the people living here have faith, friends, and hobbies. From their smiles, I see hope!
