From our last trip to the Wolfberg Arch in the Cederberg with Tarien Apsey-Markwat. Conditions were not the greatest for this image, There was only an hour between sundown and moon up, so not my most detailed Milky Way, a little heavy on the light pollution. I Had to push the detail from the sky more than I generally like but I am quite happy with what came out in the end.

Took this during a recent trip to Hogsback. Was not there for photography but Tarien and I took the cameras anyway. Turns out the conditions where pretty good for this 39 steps waterfall. I need to credit Tarien for seeing this composition which I shamelessly stole.

As all the young influencers swamped the arch Tarien Apsey-Markwat and I decided to try our hand photographing this monstrous rock formation. Having been here before I often gravitate towards this anyway as its quite imposing and yields new compositions every time I am here. But I can say the the crowd is now quite large at the arch. Gone are the days we could go here on a weekend and have no one els overnighting with us. Its a great hike still but if you are looking to photograph the arch at golden hour just beware that there are going to be people peppering your shots.

From our recent trip to the Cederberg. Had a great time with Tarien Apsey-Markwat and friends (Gert Steyn ) destroying our overworked bodies climbing up here. Tough at times but always worth the effort.

This is a time blend I managed to capture at Beaverlac after some good rains earlier this year. I have tried a few times to capture an engaging composition at this spot and this is the first time I was really happy with the results. If you scroll through my image will see a similar one taken a year before this one. Some better planning allowed me to get a more desirable silkiness on the water.
