Although i still dont know what emotion these images capture.

I Remember How

It's surprising when you realize you haven't taken photos in so long. There is a strange doubt that occurs, as if you aren't sure how to function. Well that has been me for a couple of months, detached and oddly showing a disinterest. I always know when I leave my raw images to melt away. I leave them on my camera or import them two weeks later. It's a horrifying and strangely satisfying occurrence. Because even though you enjoy the process, the fear of having nothing to show adds up day by day.

Well I finally have done the the deed, sifted through the files upon files of untouched images.

We went to a Rock Festival in Pretoria recently, well last week. This is one of the shots that makes me feel like I can shoot live photography for a long time to come. Maybe I needed the break, or maybe it was the VIP liquor that stirred my vision. Either way, I'm back and will be uploading as the days go by.

Seether - Live in JHB

So I was very excited to see Seether, go to a concert again and join the pit mice. It was manic to say the least, I couldnt belive how there were more security than photographers for the opening acts.

In the end it was the usual, hit the channesls and stick it out for the first 3 songs. Sadly the lighting for half of Seethers gig was wanting, but hey big boys dont cry and drink milk.

So Here's a taster - full images on Futurespace.co.za I will upload more as I get a chance!

Peace is like a biscuit - To good to give away

Told you I would

So a while back I went through to the Kruger, and this sparked the need to escape, in its full and cliche form. Now as beautiful and amazing the open spaces are, and in turn what they offer, I have realized something. The change is an isolated reflection, thus I have found myself stilled in my photographic journey, I have no fruits to bear,and nothing to revel in.

Amazing this, now as I finally post this, I wonder, I've always wondered around photo's, in various ways - ideas and the sort. They have in-fact been bottled, for what some may say writers block.

Well here are images from that trip - The trip that may be the release of a new season of work.

Captured below is Clem and his girlfriend Lex - With Bronchitis - We will look back on this and remember what it means to have great friends.

Rise of the machines

Now for those of you who care, or just dont know.

I work for an architectural firm by day, yes a big boy in a corporate world. Very odd, sometimes I question myself, ha ha. No kidding. So one of my projects is dealing with Barloworld Equipment. The giant caterpillar trucks that you see, yes those. They make those.

Apparently one of the mines ordered 8 big Cat Machines, each in the region on 7-9 Million.

What Am I doing, hmmm, well hopefully trying t improve things.

Here are some images.

More will follow!

Moving, Cause thats what friends do, they help

Finally, ah finally Clem gets a girlfriend.

Kidding, now he did take a massive giant leap and moved in with his lovely lady.

They have a killer spot in an old apartment block, character baby, character.

There shall be many a night spent staring into the neighboring balconies.

Ha ha, congrats man!
