  • João Paulo da Costa da Silva GOL (Lisboa, 9 de Agosto de 1966) é um fotógrafo luso-sul-africano baseado em Joanesburgo. Notabilizou-se pelo seu trabalho em cenários de guerra, bem como pelo acompanhamento que fez do fim do apartheid na África do Sul, sendo um dos 4 membros do "Bang Bang Club". Em Outubro de 2010, ficou gravemente ferido num acidente com uma mina antipessoal no sul do Afeganistão. Devido a gravidade dos ferimentos, o fotógrafo teve as pernas amputadas. Segundo o relato da jornalista Carlotta Gall, Silva continuou a fotografar, mesmo enquanto estava ferido. No final de Julho de 2011 - após passar por um longo processo de readaptação motora com próteses - voltou a trabalhar como fotojornalista. A 15 de Março de 2012, na Embaixada de Portugal em Pretória, por intermédio do Embaixador João Ramos Pinto, recebeu o grau de Grande-Oficial da Ordem da Liberdade, com o qual tinha sido agraciado a 10 de Junho de 2011, dia do ano em que é celebrado o Dia de Portugal, de Camões e das Comunidades Portuguesas.
