Photos from South Africa's streets

A few of my shots from the streets of South Africa's capital city: Pretoria

A street performer in mime. It's common to see people begging and performing at traffic lights for spare change.

Men prepare chickens in a "potjie" - a three-legged pot used over a fire. Most likely to be sold during the day.

Workers of various industries arrive in the city during the early hours of the morning.

A man in a suit carries a backpack like a schoolkid and walks past a closed liquor store.

An alley "brown street" is unmarked and considered one of the more dangerous streets in the city. It's sparse now but the next time I went we faced some trouble.

It's common to find people carrying bags or pushing trolleys of collected scrap and rubbish to trade in at recycling depots.

Two recyclers walk past a sign that reads "Tough, durable and kind to the planet."
