Teaching
Photography
Urban parks provide an oasis of nature and tranquility in the
hustle and bustle of modern city life. We can not only enjoy
nature, but each other as well, in a relaxed and informal
atmosphere. Even in the big city, it is OK to talk to
strangers.
Here, the photographer witnessed the meeting of two
individuals: a young boy learning to skate and the older
gentleman, an experienced skater. By taking a few minutes to
teach the young boy this move, the gentleman put his
individuality aside (and removed his earphones) and
illustrated Ubuntu: the view that humanity is an
inter-connected web that often requires us to reach outside
our usual groups and share ourselves with others. |
