Panel 1
In a sunny garden Rassie arranges a large extended family into rows: tall uncles at the back, children crouching at the front, Gogo Nomsa seated in the middle holding a plate.
Caption: Durban. Family reunion.
Rassie: Front row, crouch. Tall uncles at the back. Gogo in the middle with the plate. Hold it like a trophy.
Panel 2
Rassie presses the timer on a phone on a tripod while the whole family holds its pose and Lerato calls to him.
Lerato: Rassie, you have ten seconds to get in.
Rassie: Ten seconds is a lifetime.
Panel 3
The finished photo: the whole family posed and beaming around Gogo Nomsa, with a green blur at the very edge where Rassie is still running into the shot.
Gogo Nomsa: Where is the coach?
Rassie: Coaches watch from the box.
