Where will the children find hope?


As mentioned yesterday, I have been back to the New Beginnings Care Centre a couple of times over the last week or two. The saddest part of  what I've seen there is how the children are affected by the bad choices we as adults make.

BRAGGING RIGHTS

Being the quiet, reserved guy that I am, I very seldom make a fuss of my photos and never out load, BUT today I received a very flattering e-mail from Cape Town based pro-photographer Greg Lumley.

In my opinion, he is not only one of the best local wedding photographers, but all in all seems like a very nice guy. In the past, Greg has been kind enough to help me out with some sound lightning advice, which I hope to put to the test in the near future.

If you are into excellent, innovative and edgy photography, be sure to check out his website. You will also find some chilling facts on social issues along with the usual outstanding images in his most recent post – go check it out!

On the topic of social issues, as promised, I have been back to the New Beginnings Care Centre a couple of times over the past weeks, getting to know the people better and capturing more images for their website. These should be up in the next day or so.
