Burnt out taxi




I photographed this wreck of a burnt out taxi in Rosebank, Gauteng. I have seen taxis almost as bad still in use. Looking at what is left, it is almost scary to see what proportion of a vehicle is combustible. One is literally cocooned by combustible materials - seats, roof lining, carpets etc. etc.

Ponte Building




I believe in limited editing, enhancing rather than changing the picture. For once I pushed the limits of my editing tools and liked the result.

Rhino eating sand




Rhinos sometimes eat sand as part of their diet due to minerals present in the sand.

Volcanic crater at Pilanesberg





My daughter overlooking the main dam at the Pilanesberg Nature Reserve. This used to be the main vent of a volcano that existed here millions of years ago.

Rhino




I photographed this rhino at a waterhole in the Pilanesberg Nature Reserve. It is sad that animals like these are killed to "harvest" their horns to be used in eastern medicine.
