Bright Eyes

Kids from a community funded school in the Langa township of Cape Town. Most of them are inter-migrants from other areas in South Africa and are not entitled to local school funding. The shacks they live in along a major freeway are zoned to be demolished for the controversial N2 Gateway Project. Basically a cosmetic housing scheme to beautify Cape Town’s airport-city route, all in time for the 2010 Soccer World Cup.

    What a beautiful picture this is! The children’s expressions are so innocent and playful, yet the focus on the male shows some kind of contemplative expression. This is real photography, great job!
