One of them is a talented photographer and a French language teacher, Grégory Escande, who captures cheerful moments as well as hardships of people living in Maputo, Mozambique, which is considered one of the poorest countries in the world. Born in Spain and raised in the south of France, Escande moved to Africa 20 years ago and chooses to have a "studio on the street" to create a beautiful and authentic portrait of the capital of Mozambique through vibrant and striking photos. He captures scenes that are so common there that they would go unnoticed, such as mothers and their children, men recycling and selling products on the streets, and kids playing, and shares them with the rest of the world. He takes both genuine and unstaged portraits and recreates the scenes he sees in the streets every day by putting more thought and effort into it.

I wish the day had about 40 hours to be able to do everything I want.

But being a self-proclaimed captain of the Internet with close to no activity on social media, scrolling through the web for a living and sharing its treasures was always at the back of her head. So she joined the army of Bored Pandas as an Editor and has been fighting the boredom ever since. Her mission is to shine a spotlight on talented artists and inspiring stories...

And it's artistic photography, not commercial. It's nothing to do with consumerism or putting something versus something else. It's not militant. It's not sad. Or, at least, I don't see it that way. And mothers do bear the brunt of raising children and doing physical work at home or outside in many societies, not only in African ones. And children play - you think more happily - with plastic, mass produced toys, but also with sticks and wooden spoons and homemade balls. The important thing is to be allowed to play and be children and being taken care of and being protected. 1 1point reply Heather G Heather G Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago You are mainly placing your own western ideals (or first world if not western) onto the people.

106 Photos To Show Everyday Life And Hardships Of Mozambican People By Grégory Escande
8Kviews HidrėlėyPro member Publish Not your original work? Add source There's nothing like candid everyday life realities to inspire street photographers. One of them is a talented photographer and a French language teacher, Grégory Escande, who captures cheerful moments as well as hardships of people living in Maputo, Mozambique, which is considered one of the poorest countries in the world. Born in Spain and raised in the south of France, Escande moved to Africa 20 years ago and chooses to have a "studio on the street" to create a beautiful and authentic portrait of the capital of Mozambique through vibrant and striking photos. He captures scenes that are so common there that they would go unnoticed, such as mothers and their children, men recycling and selling products on the streets, and kids playing, and shares them with the rest of the world. He takes both genuine and unstaged portraits and recreates the scenes he sees in the streets every day by putting more thought and effort into it.
