  • With the Holiday season just around the corner I figured I shall bring you in the mood with a glorious coastal scene from one of the best spots in South Africa for a break; Cape Town. <br />
<br />
To me it is surprising how calm this 25 seconds long exposure appears, whereas in fact the wind was blowing with a gale-force, continuously blasting me and my camera with sand. The conditions made this image therefore a rather difficult one to create, but looking at the result I am glad I did go out on that beach to face the elements and conquer them.<br />
<br />
This view of Cape Town City and its iconic Table Mountain was created at Sunset Beach, Table View.

  • Vervet monkeys like to hang around the campsites in Moremi where they harass campers and steal food items. Despite that I actually love them, more especially the youngsters. I was determined to get some close-up shots of one of those cuties and after a few straight forward portrait images I tried some alternative framing. Here I was on my knees to get at eye level with my subject, a baby hanging upside down on its mother’s belly. I framed it such that the head of the adult is excluded; thereby creating an image that may have to make the viewer look twice before understanding what is going on.

  • It was the fierce wind on the very top of Kgale Hill that made it feel as if it were below zero. What kept me going in this horrible cold was the sheer beauty of this dawn as well as the technical challenges imposed on me by the wind and darkness. Doesn't Gaborone City look peaceful when it is still half asleep?

  • 'Spot the pussy' <br />
Serval cat in its preferred habitat, tall grasses, making it near invisible. In the original RAW file of this image the cat was actually extremely invisible, but I decided to process the image a bit more than I normally do, to bring out the cat and give it a more artistic look.

  • This may look like an unfair battle, but believe me, it was a completely innocent one.<br />
<br />
The two rhinos 'fighting' were moving rapidly from right to left and in the original frame of them in this position the small one appearing from the dust is only half in the frame. Seeing it I immediately regretted it was not there entirely. However since I was shooting the action sequence at a high frame rate and panned with the subjects I had captured the 'content' beyond the right frame edge and decided to try and stitch that on; this is the result. Further I cropped the bottom off, which was the (bright) water of a waterhole and OOF grass in the FG, to focus all the attention on the rhinos.<br />
<br />
The image title refers to the uncertain future of this amazing animal species.

  • Gemsbok are uniquely beautiful antelope with their striking black & white facial markings and extremely long straight pointy horns. The entire scene of a herd of these graceful ungulates one early morning before sunrise in Khutse appealed to me, but what makes this image strong is the positioning of the three Gemsbok. Study the image, look at the positioning of these bold faces and how the horns point towards the same point and follow the markings along the body outlines and see how they all connect, perhaps than you see what I see. The setting full moon in the background is the proverbial 'icing on the cake.
