“They Are Coming for You” tells the story of a woman who has stopped fleeing. She is not the hunted. She is the storm waiting to meet the charge. The riders behind her aren’t the end, they’re just another chapter in a story of grit, resistance, and power reclaimed.
This image is not about fear. It is about readiness. About standing your ground when every instinct tells you to fall back. It's about a warrior who has nothing left to prove, but everything left to protect.
I am Kester Kanayo Onyemaechi, an award winning photographer
As a graduate of Geology, I understand that humans are one with the earth and as it evolves, I continually strive to tell stories with Afrocentric approach.
My ultimate goal as a photographer is to create images that capture the viewer's attention and evokes an emotional response. Photography is my medium of communication, so I treat every image like a different story, which they are. Welcome to this oasis of sanity in the everyday social media madness. Join me on this journey to greatness.
I am also a fantsatic POET
