Intention
Each day presents new opportunity to view life from a different perspective. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in the daily grind that we forget to stop for a moment and reflect on the beauty that surrounds us or just be present in the moment. The daily perspective is a personal blog reminding me to pause each day and take in a moment or experience, capture it and store that moment in time.

Born to run
I’ve been wanting to photograph this guy all week but every time I passed by in the afternoon, he was safely locked up in the stables for the night. I figured trying in the morning would be my best shot…..

Vicious Circles
We work hard to buy things that make us need to work harder in order to maintain, protect and insure. Who is truly free? If you had to decide tomorrow morning to go off on an adventure, for 3years….

Best Friends
I wasn’t sure what to expect when I brought hope home one day. It wasn’t planned or thought out but rather a twist of fate I would like to call it. I was concerned as Dash had already managed to hunt down many birds…..

Thunderstorm
Just while I was sitting writing up a blog post on another image, this scene came past the window. I was mesmerised at the blue hue in the clouds on the one side and the slight orange tint on the other. I grabbed my camera…..

Blessed
It’s hard to believe that this was taken in my neighbours back yard especially when living only 25 minutes from the city. There is only one blesbok on the property but he is surrounded by springbok, meerkat, donkey, cattle and even…..

Balance
Balancing on a bike proves challenging at first but once you have it dialled you’re good to go. Ever heard the term “Its like riding a bicycle”? Balancing life on the other hand is a never ending work in progress, many talk about…..

ANC
It's very seldom i’ll find myself working without these guys, probably one of the best investments i have made in the last two years, and no, i’m not talking about a political party. Active Noise Cancellation headphones are a must…..

As within so without
Life reflects back to you what you think into it. If you want to change the quality of your life, change the quality of your thoughts. Ever stopped periodically and listened to the subconscious loop…..

One thing led to another
I’ve never had a home office, I would open up my laptop anywhere and get on with what needed to be done. I had finished up quite a few woodworking projects over the year and had two large bins full of off cuts. It’s one of…..

Poser
There aren’t many things more photogenic than pets and children. I got so many great shots today of the pets and boys playing in the sunset but somehow Dash won, once again. It’s getting more and more difficult…..

Not sure why, But I like it
Can’t really put my finger on it but of all the shots I took today this one stands out. Perhaps it’s different to my previous attempts but I had fun today looking for interesting lines and angles. This was taken at a construction site…..

Dandelion
Taking Dash on an afternoon walk I passed this beauty, it has to be the largest dandelion I have ever come across, roughly 80mm in diameter. I had no intention to post yet another dandelion on this blog but this one…..

Hanging out
We went on an early morning hike today and literally stumbled into this guy. He was dangling from a tree on a very fine thread, I just managed to avoid walking into him which made for an interesting…..

I made a friend
I was delighted to see a group of Blue Wildebeest grazing the lawn outside our holiday resort. I tried getting some shots of them earlier in the day and they were quite skittish when I got too close…..

Make a wish
January 2025 and most are about drafting up mood boards and setting intentions for the year ahead, many don’t carry it through to February as the new year buzz quickly wears off…..

The Worker Bee
Arguably one of the most important contributors to the survival of human and animal life on earth, the worker bee gets on with its job of cross pollinating up to 60% of plant life across the globe. They are under threat…..

Dash
New year’s day 2025 and I thought a great way to start the year would be to capture a beautiful sunset. On the high veld in South Africa this is an almost daily occurrence, but not today…..

Chasing Light
New year’s day 2025 and I thought a great way to start the year would be to capture a beautiful sunset. On the high veld in South Africa this is an almost daily occurrence, but not today…..
