Me: Knocks on PYO’s Door

PYO; Tolani what’s up?

Me; umm sir I just came to take a picture.. you can carry on with what you’re doing Sir

PYO; Really Tolani 🤨 Right now.. I’m always working I’m sure u have enough 🤦🏽 while giving me the “I’m kind of busy here” look & gestures 🧐
Me; Well Sir you’ve been here and you’re still here at 9pm on a Saturday. My instinct just tells me that it’s a photo I should get.

PYO; scoffs, shakes his head & proceeds to keep working

Me: Made a pic or two & got out of his office before you could say Usain Bolt.
If there’s anything I have learnt a photographer must have it’s resilience & courage. My heart was beating like crazy before I went in to create this image cause I didn’t want to disturb him but I really felt it was important too cause you just never know what can become history.
Are we scared sometimes? Heck yea but you can’t let it limit you cause your greatness is on the other side.

It might be a basic image with a powerful story but d goal is to get d job done no matter how difficult it may seem just do it cause History will thank you 😊
