This is another of of my Joburg #StreetPhotography shots #Monochrome #BNWPhotography
kinda the type of image that I’m drawn too…..think this may even be my own reflection in the centre.
Joburg city. one camera and one lens…which is the way I usually go out. Always a prime like a 35mm or a 50mm mainly.

I used to do a lot of images of dried flowers and leaves…..organic things that fascinate me….and I would place them on a light table that would create the beautiful illumination from…Read More

Capturing a figure like Mandela is indeed a significant achievement for any photographer. The authenticity of this candid documentary shot is striking, with the low angle view enhancing Mandela’s stature and presence.
