In the circus that south african politics are at the moment, the choices are between joining the clowns and dodge the pies, flying to another trapeze without a safety net, clapping and eating popcorn with the unparticipative public or taming the wild beasts. It's a tough and dangerous one. Thank you for the thought provoking image, we need it.
@ SoulQueen, thank you, yeah, the lighting and colour all worked in my favour. but the story goes, we were at a carwash that was Branded ANC. Before i took this shot i just noticed that the whole town was covered in the ANC colours, it got me thinking about ANC marketing spend, it must be crazy. everywhere i looked was ANC this, ANC that.
mr Stix, there it is, you done did it again. i love this picture, it's got me on a range of thought planes - exactly what a fotograph is meant to do. thank you
I'd say people need to vote... ignorance is not a way to go. However if you are happy with the way things are currently run and won't mind if it gets worse, then you can abscond. Kids need to be told that politics will screw them directly or otherwise. The only time you are ever gonna make a say in this whole debacle is now......don't waste it.
