A selection of photos from around the African continent this week:
Nigerian Muslim beauty pageant finalist Blqis Adebayo tours an
ancient Buddhist temple complex in Indonesia on Monday. About 25
finalists from around the world compete in the final round of the
competition in the city of Yogyakarta from 13-21 November...
Two days earlier, models present creations made of bark cloth
material by fashion designer Jose Hendo during the first fashion week
show held in Uganda's capital, Kampala. The designer has made dresses
from the cloth of Uganda's indigenous mutuba trees, mixed with cotton,
silk and denim.
While on Saturday, these women show their finest outfits at a
beauty contest in South Sudan's capital, Juba. Twelve contestants took
part in the event organised by the South Sudan Artists Association. The
contest has been running annually since the 2005 peace accord, which
ended the decades-long north-south conflict. South Sudan achieved its
independence in 2011.
