[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is the man who makes sure all the glass bottles in the informal settlement area of Tembisa are collected and stored in large metal drums safely away from all the children that play in the area.
I managed to capture him as he was saying hello to a friend of his whilst trying to repair the lock to his 'holding area'.
He gets paid a small amount of money from the council who come to collect the glass every couple of weeks and the residents of the area show much gratitude to him for helping to keep their children safe from harm.
I printed this image and gave it to him a couple of weeks ago, he was most proud.

A good job he has!
A shame you do not allow a Workshop, because I can see his face here in my photoshop program
