Thought provoking question

This morning Tom Eaton, Mail&Guardians’ humorous and insightful columnist, launched his book "Twelve rows from the back" at Wordfest. Whilst waiting for a SAfm interview afterwards he strolled through my exhibition and asked a thought provoking question after I shared some insight into my work with him. “If you had a magic wand, what would you ultimately like to do?” …and I replied: “doing this as a living, (re) presenting peoples lives and creating awareness through visual documentary!”

Doing this with still or moving photography is not definite, a combination of both is always possible, but this was certainly a question that has sparked ideas and interests…

Megan Anderson, a very young and enthusiatic painter asked if she could use this image to re-paint it for a school project.

Maybe Megan will leave me a short comment online and even show me the end product some time ;)
