Clicking on the image, will open a slideshow with more images from the Magical Light gallery.

Picture Of The Day 28 January 2010
I took this shot during sunrise a few months back. I love the atmosphere of the morning light, the warmth and cripness.
On The Mountain
I spent one night with friends on top of Table Mountain. I captured this view, while we made our way to the hut. Spending time on the mountain is one of the best ways for me to rejuvenate. It’s one of the things, I haven’t done often enough over the last few months. The climate [...]
Magical Light
It seems this the part of the time where everyone comes up with top 10 lists of the year. I don’t really have a top 10 list, but some pictures that I took that I really like. All of these pictures are my private work and were not shot as part of an assignment. These [...]
Sunset over Table Mountain
On Tuesday night, I went for a run up Lion’s Head. It turned out to be more a walk than a run after all.
We rested below the top and were treated with this beautiful sunset. I used the Pano application on the iPhone to produce this image.
Cape of Good Hope/ Cape Point
No assignments today. A day off. What a good reason to pack my camera and some lenses to drive down to Cape Point and take some nature shots. It was not a long planned excursion, but rather a decision, I made in the spur of the moment. It’s a drive of about 50 kilometres (31 [...]
Stillness in motion
My friend Scot Baston from the UK, challenged the members in the FB Traveltogs group with this week’s photo challenge. He gave us the theme: Stillness in motion. It has been one the more difficult photo challenges to photograph. Scot made it a bit easier, by explaining:
“..best described as calm in the face of disorder/panic/disturbance [...]
Learning Photography
How do you learn photography? Where do you get inspiration? Where can you learn new techniques?
I love reading and have been learning a lot about photography through reading books. The local library in my hometown had a good collection of high quality photography books. That was a starting point.
The more you practice, the better your [...]
iPhone Picture of Devil’s Peak
On Friday, I had a assignment to photograph an office building in Mowbray and found myself in a spot with a beautiful view of Devil’s Peak. I used my iPhone to capture this image.
Comments welcome.
Landscape Photography
Landscape Photography always has been a treasured part of my photography. Whenever I have a chance to do some landscape photography, I make use of the opportunity. On Friday, I spent most of the day in Greyton in the Overberg area with a shoot for a restaurant. The shoot took longer than planned, which [...]
Cape Point
I am sure, I mentioned it before, but Cape Town is one of the places in the world, which is just blessed with natural beauty. I spent some time at Cape Point on Saturday with the extended family and visitors from the States. Cape Point is one of these great nature reserves, which offers a [...]
iPhone Picture Of The Day – a favourite
I went for a run along Muizenberg beach, a few days ago. Originally, I wanted to go up to Silvermine Reserve, but weather was changing to the worse, so I decided to choose the safer option. Luckily, I did so. Getting out of the rain and wind, was easier and I witnessed some dramatic clouds [...]

Have you ever heard of Alfred Eisenstaedt? Have you ever heard of Sebastiao Salgado? Have you ever heard of …? [...]
Constantia Autumn Morning Light
I went for a run this morning with my iPhone and as you know, it is autumn in Cape Town. We call it winter on rainy days. The light was absolutely beautiful, the air light and crips and I found myself taking far more pictures than I planned to. Photography can be addictive. This image [...]
Photo Of The Day
Over the last few days I started using my iPhone as camera and posted a couple of the images via Twitter. The iPhone has a lot of limitations and the picture quality is average, but it reminds me of taking pictures with a Poloaroid camera and the limitations forces me to work more creatively. I [...]
