Vineyard Mom South Africa
Phodographer Carolyn Lane in Kuilsrivier, South Africa Feb. 2009

lowry-with-vineyard-workers I initially shot and distributed pictures for all the children in the Zevenwacht Winery Preschool. It occurred to me that if the children had never had their pictures taken, it was quite likely neither had their moms. So walking back I stopped along the vineyards and took pictures of every single working mom! When the lorry (truck) picked them up, they all shouted their gratitude and waved goodbye.

Best Foto of the Week!
