In pictures: Life in Mozambique

South African reader Axel Schmitz took these pictures on a holiday in Mozambique. "Boy fishing with a harpoon close to Beira - central Mozambique."

"Boys playing in the low-tide waters of the Vilankulo Bay."

"Catch of the day being sold to passing buses at a cross road - just north of Beira."

"Woman walking on her way to market with fish close to Xai-Xai in southern Mozambique."

"A boy on the beach walking a dog - Beira."

"Colourful material being hung out to dry after having the dying and waxing in Imanbane."

"Dry salted fish being sold at the covered part of the Maputo market."

"Two children fetching water from a well 23 kilometers from their village. The heat was close to unbearable. (Chimoio - Central Mozambique) "

"A central Mozambican village holding a feast after a wedding. The colours of the cooking fires behind the trees were stunning."

"A fishing dhow just off the reef of one of the Bazaruto archipelago islands. Such clear waters!"
