A GIANT SAGE

The Western Cape have been plagued by the most devastating fires in the last six to eight years. It makes me so sad to think of all the loss of animal life, fauna and flora , in what can only be arson. Natural fires just didn't occur as frequently in previous years.

Ironically, the devastation of the fires, bring with it a giant purification, almost like a natural or industrial scale cleansing - minus the Californian Sage stick. The burnt purification of the plants, make space for new growth and plants like especially our indigenous Fynbos, benefits from the occasional burn. I suppose like with all things in life, there are benefits (or positives) to the negative.

I drove past these mountains about two days after the fire was brought under control - it was still clearly smoldering and white smoke which continued to haze the area.

This was taken at the Theewaterskloof Dam, facing the Franschoek Mountains, better know as Mount Rochelle Nature Reserve.

A SKYLINE ON THE SPECTRUM

This must be one of the most flamboyant skies we have ever seen in Helderberg! I believe everything in life is a spectrum - this sunset for sure must be on the far right side of the slider!

One minute we were sitting down having dinner, the next, I look up and spot this! Within 60 seconds I had my camera in my hand and were clicking these images outside!

Yours in capturing YOU,

Alejo Muniz 🇧🇷 grabbing the golden hour in J-Bay - 12 July 2025 (Heat 2). I love the texture and vibrancy of these images. So sad to see J-Bay got dropped from the 2026 Tour! I am going to have to travel now!

WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL FREE

I think these images of surfer, Luke Thompson, is incredibly magnetic. Even for me, who is not a water baby (me and the sharks have an agreement), these look so inviting. It makes me wonder what it must feel like to be so free, playful and in sync with nature.

Off course, being human, we made this into a competitive sport too, but even in the most tense moments of the Corona Cero event at Jeffreys Bay, there was something light and cheerful about the athletes and the crowd. The blue water certainly makes for a good mood!

Professional athletes have their images taken by professionals all the time, so these images really are nothing unique. However, the amount of joy it's given me to capture these epic moments and the experience that comes with that is priceless! I honestly think one of my dream vocations would be to follow a pro-surfer on all their tours across the world to chase the most perfect waves during competition! A girl can dream!

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE AURA

I love the cheeky little finger point from Luke Thompson, professional surfer from South Africa. This was taken during warm ups on the first day at the Corona Cero event at Jeffreys Bay in 2025. The blue water certainly makes for a good mood!

MORNING IN FULL GLORY

There are very little things that are more picturesque, than the first kisses of the sun, touching the waves first thing in the morning. If you are lucky, and the light catches the wave from the back, at the exact right angle, it creates the most beautiful glassy effect that you can clearly see in this photo. 🌊🐬 It is so good to see female surfers taking full advantage of the first waves to warm up for the competition later in the day. These images were taken on the first day at the Corona Cero Open 2025 in Jeffreys Bay. I wish I could give this lady the high resolution copy of this image! It deserves to be printed and on display for someone who would appreciate the moment!



I literally have thousands of images that I'm working through with great joy. It's impossible not to feel good watching these athletes practice their sport with absolute joy and passion!

Riding the wave of life!

THE MANY COLOURS OF SURF

How can you not be inspired to pick up your board early in the morning? The light just hits differently and Supertubes in Jeffreysbay, is perfectly positioned for interesting blacklight in the morning.

Take me to the ocean!
