Nigerian photographer and musician Ty Bello was doing a photo shoot with British musician Tinie Tempah in the city of Lagos. It looks like an early morning, and you can see people in the background. As they were shooting, a bread vendor walked by on her way to work and Bello snapped a few pictures with her in them. Bello was impressed with the woman’s look and wanted to find her again. The caption of this picture says,
BEATIFULX : WHO IS SHE.Every one has been asking if this lady is a model .. It was just perfect coincidence ... She just happened to be walking by while I photographed . It happened so fast .She definitely SHOULD be a model. .. I'm happy to help her build a portfolio if she's interested .She's so beautiful and photographed so well. I'll find a way to track her down somehow . You guys can also help
Nigerian Instagram followers helped her find Olajumoke Orisaguna, a 27-year-old mother of two from a distant village who came to Lagos for work. Bello arranged to photograph Orisanguna for the magazine This Day Style and tell her story.
Orisanguna became a sensation in Nigeria, and has since signed with a modeling agency. Read the whole story and see more pictures at Buzzfeed.

We can't tell where it ends and we beings, it's to the point that if we try to objectify it and see it for what it is, people think we're crazy.
"The film is sort of an observation of mine on how a lot of people function in society. The creatures in Terminus don't really exist. They're in people's heads, but the people try and function like nothing's wrong. They're sort of metaphors for living with anxiety or unresolved issues and trying to ignore it rather than deal with it."
