This woman is a victim of a seemingly never ending war in southern congo. She has suffered sexual violence (rape) so severe it has rendered her incontinent. She now exists purely as a result of a courageous charity called Heal Africa, and indeed her own inner strength and faith. I asked her if I could take her portrait and she stood up (which must have been painful), straightened her back and stared straight down the lens. No stopping to straighten her scarf, no preening, no fear. Just an honesty so raw, so uninhibited and so rare, I caught my breath and thought I’d never breath again. I was totally overpowered by her intensity. After I took the shot and showed it to her she smiled and thanked me. It still gives me a shiver to look at it now. HEAL Africa calendar available now!!!

You want honesty? You want real? You want ‘straight up?’ / Go to a place where there’s no pretention. Where there’s no walls. Where there’s only windows. / Go to a place where even amongst the have-nots there are some who have-not as much as others. / Go there right now in your mind and tell me you’re not affected by what you see. / Then spare a thought for those who have not much more than the desire to dream. And cherish your ability to do so. x All profits to healafrica.org

The battle was only minutes old and the Ova were already gaining the upper hand through advanced assault methods. The poor stupid Corks could do nothing to counter the superior startegic Egg thinking and were pushed back. The Corks’ numbers were dwindling fast. Where were those reinforcements?
