Ibadan, November 3, 2012, at the event to honour the winner of the 2012 Caine Prize.
Photos from the event.
Since it’s been a while since I made a picture post, I am using this one to feature a few of the new pictures I have taken since moving to Lagos. They range from snapshots in a crowded bus stop on the Lagos Island, to evening shots at palm wine shacks at Epe, idle passengers in Oshodi, and returning wayfarers in Egbeda. There are a few others clichéd shots of famous Lagos landmarks: The National Theatre, a bike rider on a cool afternoon, a random bridge, or the Lagos harbour on a morning (with moss floating on its surface); and one totally unexpected sight of an itinerant beggar carrying a TESOL bag.
Someday – before the end of the world – I will have a public exhibition of some of the most memorable shots I have taken over all this time. But for now, enjoy.
I have taken the tumblr bug (on the same day when Facebook acquired Instagram – if this means anything). I will now share more of my favourite photographs there, so follow if you have a tumblr account, or not. Prints of photographs (with frames, if requested) will be available on request at reasonable price. They make for good wallpaper art.
