Photography of the fourth journey

During a 6 weeks stay in Sudan I took 2500 photos. The first photos were taken in Khartoum. The next series is from Kadugli, the capital of Southern Kordofan, followed by photos from a trip to Luba, Miri and Kusli, Yousif Kuwa's birth place. The next is an impression of the all Ajang Conference held in Mendil on March 20, 2006.
