Photography
I
have always had an interest in photography. My current camera is
a Canon Powershot A710 IS that's been hacked with a CHDK firmware
update to allow things like raw shooting and cool scripts. I enjoy
taking photo's of landscapes and nature
and here are some of my favourite photos.

| A picture
taken from a restaurant in the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town. I
really liked the way the colours turned out here. |
This was
taken at the Quiver Tree Forest near Keetmanshoop in Namibia. It was
taken on an awesome, bizarre and stormy new years evening. I wanted to
try and capture the second (refracted) rainbow and you can just make it
out on the left. |

| Taken near
the Deadvlei in the Namib. This is the deepest point into the Namib
that one can get to with a 4x4 and without getting special permits or
breaking laws. |
Walking to
the Deadvlei I passed these dunes. I liked the interplay of lines and
angles and the photo turned out quite nice. If only my camera at the
time wasn't marred by a speck of dust on the lens. |

| This is at
Fish Hoek beach where I was a life-guard. I don't know who the person
in the photo is and I didn't plan on having them there, but I've really
come to like it. I think it's the colours. |
A
particularly stormy night in the Kgalagadi National Park in Botswana.
It was very near sunset and I had fun sitting precariously on a hut,
balancing a tripod and playing with lighting. |
