About Do you still remember waiting on the development of your analog film ?
I saw some other beautiful ladies waiting in front of the door but unfortunately they got very very tired.


Candid and street Photography in Luanda is not that easy as so many shots although full of beauty and humanity make me aware of the reality of extreme poverty.
The other point is that so many policeman doing their job also consider every other citizen as a potential source of income.
Just after making some shots here I was "arrested" that means I could not escape from being brought to a nearby police office. My documents were taken from me and I needed all my forces of negotiation instead of simply a little bit bribing.
When the officer asked me to give him my camera, I asked if why he did not ask me to give him my car or even my shirt.
Then I even wondered why being arrested and that I would speak urgently to his boss, or that he could speak with some of mine, the discussion was finished in another 5 minutes and I got my documents returned. Free man again.

Thank you Erland, my star model on the foreground was less handsome than yours but she could be as creative in photography. Who tells?
