Mohamed, 63, has been a farmer his whole life. On this foggy Cairo morning, he took to the small plot of land he rents and grazed the field manually. Cairo, Egypt, January 2014. --
Photo by Laura El-Tantawy (@laura_eltantawy): “Being part of the Everyday Africa team of photographers is a unique opportunity for me to showcase my pride in my African heritage in an artistic and engaging way. It has also been a way for me to explore my own heritage and reach out directly and instantly to thousands of viewers across the world. It’s a democratic platform that explores Africa beyond the stereotype and the cliche - this is why I appreciate it the most. Viewers are seeing that Africa is not a place of darkness, sickness and death as the continent has traditionally and historically been labelled. It’s a continent full of life and color and Everyday Africa is a contemporary platform celebrating this by challenging old preconceptions. I am proud of my collaboration with African photographers on this platform and can’t wait to see where it goes next.” --
