Photographs of South Africa and Namibia

Welcome to my landscape photography portfolio of South Africa and Namibia. I am a photographer from the Cape with a passion for capturing compelling images of nature. I spend most of my time behind the camera in the Western Cape, but I have also taken my photography further afield to the landscapes of Namibia and the Drakensberg. Southern Africa has vast geographical diversity and photographic potential. From the towering red dunes of the Namib, seaside forests of the Wild Coast, to the basalt peaks of the Drakensberg; there is no shortage of beautiful views. Click on the interactive map to explore!

For any aspiring landscape photographers, visit my blog to find photography tutorials, techniques and Photoshop tips to help take your images to the next level. There's a heap of new actions and tutorials coming throughout the month of November!

I hope you enjoy my landscape photography and exploring the wonders of Southern Africa through my site.  If you like what you see then you can share the site and/or follow me using the buttons on the left!
