The old and the young
These old, bleached trees once held the dunes beneath their green branches. Since destroyed by fire, the sands are free to shift where the wind would take them, and the dunes now move about, changing from day to day.
By a thread
A rescuer moves across a horizontal high-line during a training exercise somewhere on Table Mountain.
The Mountain Club of SA (MCSA) search and rescue team is a highly motivated, highly trained group of climbers. They offer their services - time, energy and expertise - free of charge to the community, and are regularly called out, sometimes to risk their lives, day and night.
Skin and gold
A less boring way of presenting jewellery is to focus on the whole point of such adornment. The enhancement of form, a display of the aesthetic with the view to elevating the beauty of the human form. Style; mystery, and wonder.
Jewellery
This photograph of a jewellery piece is part of a project imaging the unique creations of the artist jeweller AnGela.
An enormous amount of time, effort and emotional energy goes into the design and manufacturing of each item.
This brooch was hand crafted by AnGela in her Stellenbosch studio in sterling silver and 18ct gold. View her blog and other amazing forms of wearable art here
Space age
This is part of an ongoing commercial shoot for Silverback with which I've been involved. Mostly this has involved imaging whole bikes, but in this case I had to photograph a state-of-the art carbon fibre racing frame.It was shot in my studio, and credit for the processing, background and logo must go to Stephen Symons, who was also responsible for the bike decal design.

(Flat Stanley are in the process of a name change to macStanley, due to some issue with using their name in Europe).
Go figure.

Forest of change
This photograph was taken when work was begun on the new 2010 soccer stadium in Cape Town.
I wanted to show something of the frustration I felt at the whole thing, this ghastly abomination that would soon appear to blight yet further this city's skyline.
The final edited image makes me sad.
