With the 4th February having been World Cancer Day and the CANSA Shavathon coming up at the end of February in South Africa, I would like to challenge the community to share and make available images which:
- showcase the glowing beauty of every individual
- disprove the notion that women who have lost their hair have lost their beauty
- celebrate life
- stand in solidarity with, and celebrate those who are battling to conquer cancer and / or are cancer survivors.
We are looking for uplifting and inspiring images to generate messages of hope and awareness.
On a personal note, as both my parents have been affected by cancer, I shall be shaving my hair on the 28th February, donating the ponytail for a real-hair wig to be made for a chemo patient, and proudly sporting a number 1 thereafter.
I have also joined forces with another photo studio to take portraits at one of the Shavathon events on the 28th in order to raise funds for CANSA 2photographers.givengain.org .
As photographers we tell stories and share messages with the images we create. This is our gift and our responsibility. ... let's join forces to tell a story of beauty and hope and inspiration that spans the globe!
Closed because I no longer need visuals for this project
due to logistical issues our side, the image is no longer required. But some excellent shots were submitted which fitted the brief, which I have nominated as sign of appreciation to participating photographers
