Diagonal Street

About a month ago I was hired by Matt, a US American who is every so often in Johannesburg, South Africa for business. He was advised by the company's hired security never to leave his hotel or office without their protection. Luckily for him, he decided to venture out and explore the city with me. We spent the day on a "photography tour" of Joburg & it's surrounds. Matt was able to see Joburg for the vibrant, contrasting, beautiful city that it is. Yes to his surprise, most of us live "normal" lives, we jog on the street, ride our bicycles, have breakfast at street-side cafes on weekends without fear of being mugged or attacked. Diagonal Street where this photo was taken, is in a part of the city that is always bustling.
