When tradition meets the modern world: African tribeswoman in goatskin clothes checks out

NEW Tradition meets the new world in this stunning series of images as a woman from Nambia's Himba tribe is pictured shopping for groceries in her local supermarket. Carrying a young child on her back, who appears completely oblivious to the attention the elegant woman is attracting (right), she is seen picking up flour, sugar and washing powder (left and centre).

The series of images were taken in a grocery store in the village of Opuwo.

He also captured scenes of Himba tribe members in their rural heartland, including an image of a woman cooking using pots outside her home (insert).

Santa Clara cops say they won't staff games if Colin Kaepernick continues protest

Members of the Santa Clara Police Officer's Association, which provides about 70 cops for 49ers games, say they will stop attending if Kaepernick continues with his protest.

Beaches closed and flights threatened as 30million people prepare for Hermine

As Hermine pushed through South Carolina with strong winds and heavy rains on Friday, it could strengthen back into a hurricane as it moves into the Atlantic coast over the Labor Day weekend (projected path shown bottom right), forecasters said.
