Uganda crown crane, this was the name that James used to call it when he was growing up in Africa. AKA Grey crowned crane.
The only one I envy is the one who has not been to Africa .
For they have much to look forward too .

The road from Mbarara to Kabale. The expressions on these boys' faces pushing a load of pine apples uphill makes this shot for me. The incline of the road is always deceptive in photos, but take my word for it, the exertion is very real! Continued...

These Uganda-pictures date back about three years. From the time that I just started to take a serious interest into photography. I still had to learn a lot at that time....and I still do ;-).

In this traditional wedding, 4 pretty young dancing girls present themselves to the groom and his family. The object is for the groom and his family to find the bride in this group of dancing girls, and to give the groom one more symbolic "last chance" to change his mind before the wedding ceremony. These dancing girls come out several times in different color matching dresses. In Uganda, Africa. Near the border with the DRC.
Uganda, 2019: Kansiime cradles her daughter in Mbarara. Both are living with HIV. Only 790,000 children aged 0-14, living with HIV in 2018, are receiving lifesaving antiretroviral therapy. The total number of children age 0-9 living with HIV in 2018 was 1.1 million. For them, low access to antiretroviral treatment is a leading cause for death. Kansiime mixes a new oral pellet form of pediatric antiretroviral medication into her daughter’s food. The pellets do not require refrigeration and lack the bitter taste of other forms of medication. The new formulation improves the medication’s uptake and offers better viral load suppression for children.

UNHCR Refugee camp in Western Uganda. Home to 30,000 refugees from the Congo, Rwanda, Sudan, Somali, Burundi, Angola and Tanzania.
This "farm" was in a village we visited in Uganda. Here they grew coffee, pineapple, corn, potatoes, bananas, and many other foods. To the right of the house, you can see one of the many banana trees. One of the interesting things about Uganda is that there are many buildings that are partially built. This is because they will build what they can with the cash they have on hand. To get a building loan, the interest rate will likely be in the 20-30% range (as compared to our 3-4%), so needless to say, not many people have mortgages. Its not uncommon for a house to take many years to be built. If you notice, the brick on the right side of the house is a different color than that on the left side. This is likely because it was built in two different phases.

In eastern Uganda some girls choose 'marriages through the window' (informal cohabitation) in the hope that their boyfriends or husbands can provide for them better than their parents can.
But these informal marriages are not arranged with the blessing of families and clans and can leave girls – and any children from their relationship – with limited security and protection if relationships fail.
