Photographer Espen Eichhöfer chose to be in South Sudan on July 9, 2011, the day it became an independent state, formally demarcating the line separating it from the north.

Would love to know where/how I can obtain a copy of "On Borders." It doesn't seem to be currently available in American or German retail outlets.
