    Lebogang does the first thing that came to my mind as well. Only found out yesterday that Mopheme was actually a book.

    Loving the image.

    Well the pic said Sotho initiation to me, but these were actually herders, from a series of painted over pics at Golden Gate (Free State) but as i sat and looked at them the colours they were done in did not suit me, they were to blend and boring (with the story they could tell, so I asked the manager if I could take pics of them and tweak the colours just to show him how epic these pics could look...and when i was done he was like we should have just got you to do them, so I gave him the copies and he said "you own the pictures now"...which is probably the reason for the grain in them.
