Haile Selassie Reception 1956
The Gateway to India, the banner over the road reads 'Long Live Indo-Ethiopian Friendship'. For security reasons Denis could not get any closer with his camera. Although Selassie's car past within 20 fet of him he thought it prudent not to raise his camera at that moment in case it was thought he was going to take a different type of shot of Selassie!
