Addis Ababa Umbrellas, Ethiopia, 1999
A cluster of ornate umbrellas enlivens a dreary day in Addis Ababa as a crowd of people lines up outside a church.
At 8,000 feet (2,400 meters) above sea level, Ethiopia's capital city is the highest in Africa. The population is almost evenly split between Christians, living in the highlands, and Muslims inhabiting the lowlands.

一群人打开装饰华丽的雨伞使人活泼起来,一扫沉闷的日子,亚的斯亚贝巴市的人们挤满街头排队走向教堂外面。
埃塞俄比亚的首都亚的斯亚贝巴位于该国东南部,是非洲是海拔最高的地方,达到2400米高于海平面之上。该国的人口几乎都是信奉基督教而且住在高地,还有穆斯林信徒则居住在低地。
