July 2008

I am from Namibia (Africa) and live in a small town on the west coast called Swakopmund.
Namibia is a photographer’s dream – it boasts wild seascapes, rugged mountains, lonely deserts, stunning wildlife, colonial cities and nearly unlimited elbow room as it is one of the least populated places in the world.
It's horizons are wide and its skies open. The spirit of Africa dwells in wild places where game paths criss-cross the land like wrinkles on its ancient face. It's a place of infinite space and beauty .... a place of texture and shape, of light and colour. It is a place that alive in your soul.

I hope to capture some of this beauty and share it with you.

I got bitten by the photographers bug in May 2007 while on holiday in Botswana. Since then I bought my own camera and various lenses. I am in the process of learning and experimenting. It is a great journey!!

Camera : Canon EOS 350D / 400D
Nikon D40
Lenses : Canon EFS 18-35mm
Tamron 70-300mm Tele-Macro
Sigma 10-20mm Wide angle
Nikon DX 18-35mm

All advice more than welcome.
