This photographic portraiture series has been shot by Jono Wood at the Nelson Mandela memorial at FNB stadium in Soweto. Dark background and rainy weather were quite appealing to capture a mourning world…
Some of these characters were original ANC activists during the apartheid struggle and others a part of our rainnbow nation.
