Spier Eagle Encounters
In a brief moment of oversight, I completely forgot about our visit to Spier Eagle Encounters while we were in the Cape. They rehabilitate birds of prey that have been…
South Africa Trip Masterpost
Here is the order that all of the South Africa Trip blogs go in: Snapseed for Photo Editing Weavers Red Bishops Caught in the Rain Frustrating Days - Malachite Sunbirds…
Action shots
Action shots are impressive - and rightly so, as they can be extremely difficult to capture. In wildlife photography, they require knowledge of animal behaviour so you can anticipate what…
Rock Kestrels
One of the things I love about wildlife photography is that, not only are the various animals we chase beautiful, but the landscapes we find them in can be pretty…
iPhoneography update
To curb my procrastinatory habit of editing photos while I should be studying, I left my photo storage hard-drives at home so I could devote this week to some proper,…
Flamingos
I can't say I ever expected to chase Flamingos around a golf-course. I can now retrospectively add it to my bucket list though, because it was quite fun, and I…

Keeping Going – Photography during the semester
We're taking a little break from the South Africa blogs this weekend, as University is currently draining a lot of my time. Next week (hopefully!) we'll be back with more…
Two Oceans Aquarium
I love aquariums. They have fascinated and delighted me for as long as I can remember. So I'll jump at any opportunity to visit one. I don't actually remember the last…
Animals and Habitats
I love taking detailed, close-up images of wildlife. I love gorgeous, pin-sharp feather-detail on birds, and adore photographs with a single focus and soft backgrounds. Which is why I like…
subaruforester.org Calendar Competition
I'm a predominantly a wildlife photographer. I do enjoy experimenting with other things though, dabbling in a bit of portraiture, landscape, and even automobile photography. Chris is fond of his…
Kirstenbosch Orange Breasted Sunbirds
We had some frustration with sunbirds at Giant's Castle. I was hoping that we'd get a chance at a different variety in the Cape - Orange Breasted Sunbirds. Perhaps I'm…
