Back Home

I have just got back from a 3 week trip to England where I was shooting an article for Blunt Magazine (R.I.P.) which will now not be in Blunt. That would explain why there haven't been any updates on my blog. I am busy trying to get through the back log of work that has now piled up but as soon as that happens you can be sure there'll be an influx of pics right here.

Some friends came by my place this weekend and took me through to the Cars In The Park event that took place at Zwartkops on Sunday. Here is one of my favourite cars from that...

Green Ramp

The Green Ramp as it is collectively known is somewhat of a legend in Johannesburg. It's in Parkhurst and was even used in the new Converse ad campaign which Warren Van Rensburg shot. What's even cooler is that it's just down the road from The Riot BMX Shop. So the other day Colin, Greg and myself headed down for a little sundown sesh. We had a blast and I shot these couple of pics. When these two ride together it's better to just put down my bike and pull out the camera which is exactly what I did.

More Car Photography

This past month has been chronic with all the car photos I've been shooting for Cars In Action but on the flip side I've been getting to drive some really awesome automobiles. Here are some of the shots I have take recently. The '59 Corvette needs special mentioning. This car is immaculate and is in 95 - 100% original condition. It is one of 535 white/silver ones out of 9670 ever made and basically defines a classic. Mooi!





The Exploited

Although I wasn't planning on going, last night in a last minute decision I went through to Bassline in Newtown to watch the Exploited and supporting acts. Growing up I used to listen to a lot of Exploited so I was keen on getting to hear them live. Once there I bumped into fellow photographer friend, Marcus Maschwitz. It's always good seeing him as it means I get to pick his brain for tips and what not. He's one of my favourite photog's for sure. Go check out his blog

During the fourth song the massively angstful crowd pushed over the barrier and ended up pinning me against the stage whilst crushing my legs. Luckily no harm was done but the girl under me didn't look to good especially after one of the speakers was pulled down onto her. It was quite an eventful evening and I hope that girl is ok. Anyway here are two shots I got.

The Big Z

Yesterday I went with some friends to watch the Wesbank Super Series at Zwartkops Raceway. I took my twin lens Yashica D medium format camera with and got more looks than the promo girls which made for a good laugh. I can't wait to develop the film and see if any shots came out. Anyways here are some shots I got with the "digi" of the days racing plus one or two shots from last weekend of a friend racing his Ducati.

Bicycle Motocross

The last ten years of my life has been dominated by BMX. Freestyle that is. Not racing. It was BMX that got me into photography and it makes no sense that I haven't posted any of my riding pics yet. That's all gonna change right now. So here are some of the more recent pics I have taken. Hope you enjoy.
