Il Donga è il combattimento tradizionale con i bastoni tipico di diverse tribù dell' area che al confine tra l' Etiopia ed il Sudan. Le ragioni di questi combattimenti sono molteplici e, quello a cui abbiamo assistito noi, era per dirimere una disputa tra due villaggi Surma. Pur essendoci delle regole ben precise ed una sorta di arbitri, spesso ci sono momenti di grande tensione e qualche scontro particolarmente violento tanto che è successo che cifossero anche conseguenza molto gravi. Questo " guerriero " non mostrava dolore per le ferite, cosa assolutaente riprovevole per la tradizione Surma, ma grandissimo rammarico e disappunto per essere stato fermato in seguito alle ferite riportate. Per prima cosa, per cercare di fermare il sangue hanno buttatato sulle ferite una manciata di sabbia e sassi raccolta dal terreno..... Quando ho intuito cosa stava succedendo mi ci sono letteralmente buttato in mezzo per cercare di carpire qualche immagine diversa dal solito. Surma tribe Ethiopia Fino a pochi giorni fa avevo già deciso l' itinerario del mio viaggio in Etiopia e stavo per pubblicarlo sul sito ma poi colto una folgorazione ! Ed ora sto cercando di organizzare qualcosa di diverso per vedere altre tribù molto meno conosciute che per altro, anche loro fanno il Donga !!

Memy I think this is your best photo reportage! Pure reportage, where have you been invisible and snapped while no one cared about you.
This says a lot, nice!

Thanks Simon,
is a series that I'm very satisfied and there are 3/4 shots really very interesting.
I'm not convinced it's the best photo but I also think that it is among the most successful. If I had to do a story on Donga on the whole I have no problem saying that I feel I have an excellent material for the hands also because I have often pointed to this subject and the final has rewarded me .. :-P
More than being invisible I erono them to be completely absorbed by other things!

Photo extraordinary, especially for the drama and impact. The most remarkable thing that I think is the point of view from which you have taken, which accentuates the strength ... I bow!

Thank you very much Enrico:-P
In fact if, as my usual, I had photographed with the remote, the result would certainly have been less effective and engaging.
In this case, then the 17/40 of which have never been fully satisfied, he also worked well ........

Spectacular, you're in the action.
I'll say, the reporter is your job.
Great Memy.
See you soon. Joe.
Ps: I just got back from a ride spectacular, Maggia valley, up over the lake Elder, the wheels on the snow.
Doc ;-)
