What to say ? Well, I picked up my first DSLR in may 2011 and that is when I started photography. I'm a self taught and at the moment I live in Pretoria, South Africa. Have fun on my blog and I will try to upload images, thoughts and anything that has to do with me and my art as often as possible. MY Facebook

Something from a while ago, to read and to be inspired...we could live in a better world if everyone was involved the proper way...

" Finally he got it... I've been keeping the picture of this boy in my car hoping I would see him everytime I go to Haftield but he was never there and finally today I got to see him... I gave him his photo and he was really happy that he wasn't even paying attention to what I was telling him. Took this pic of him about a month ago, I remember him approaching us while we were busy taking some night shots with my friends and he seemed to be very curious and was asking plenty of questions, I then asked him if he wanted a photo too and he just smiled and said " photo of me ? yes biggie "... This is probably the first time he ever gets a picture of himself and this is photography to me...I would actually love to take more images of the ones who don't have a single image of themselves so one day when they become someone they know where they come from and they actually remember how they looked like...you don't have to be rich to put a smile on someone's face, just use whatever skill or opportunity you have and share it with others. P.S: Some people should actually stop complaining because out there you find people with real problems."

I like making people happy, helping them especially when they are not closed to me then they will not feel any pressure to be good with me in return.

Sometimes you jump for freedom...

Sometimes you jump to escape...

Sometimes you jump for happiness...

And sometimes you just jump !
