Congo Kinshasa III

My last post was on 26th Jan... almost two months ago... in the meantime, i did take pictures but not that intensively. i also felt i needed a break. the film project in lebanon came to an end and i was a bit weary of taking random pictures.

i thought i'd post some of the pics i took in the DRCongo. the difficult thing here is that, if you dont have any authorization docs, you may not take pics in the street. the police can arrest you or you can get your camera smashed by a passer-by. so, unfortunately, although i spotted some extraordinary moments to capture, i couldnt. a bit frustrating. so, one day, when i was driving around the city, in my steel cocoon with a UNDP stamp on the passenger door, i tried to click the best i could to capture some evocative scenes... if some of the pictures are awkwardly framed, you know why... i still think that they have a special something. i hope.
