I was just going through some of the photos I took on our honeymoon the other day and stumbled across these.  A typical Madagascar style fishing boat out in the bay at sunset.  I loved it there and would really love to go back some day and shoot more photos, one of the most mystical places I have ever been to.

These are some shots that I took over the weekend at the skatepark in Alexander Township in Johannesburg.  I always knew it existed but never knew where it was and I have to say, I didn’t expect it to be as good as it was.  It’s a huge park with loads to skate and ride on and the kids there are cool which, for me, is key.  I really don’t care to hang out with a bunch of people that think they’re cooler than everyone else because they skate or ride better.  Who cares, we’re all there to have fun anyways.  It was fun watching these guys rip on their bikes and even more fun shooting some photos.  Thanks to the people that built the skatepark and gave those kids a place to go to and do something positive, it beats most of the parks I’ve seen in upper to middle class neighborhoods.

I can’t remember which street in San Francisco I was on when I shot this picture.  It might have been Bush Street, but who knows and who cares really!?  I liked the sunset and the ‘Yellow’ cab in the foreground.

After a pleasent 2 night stay in Swakopmund, we headed south east, into the Namib Naukluft Park and the road to Sossusvlei.  The drive is quite long dusty but the scenary makes it well worth it!

There’s a check point on the Trans-Kalahari Freeway where you have to get out of you car and step into some liquid that clears the bottom of your shoes of any ‘Foot and Mouth’ particles.  You also have to drive your car through the liquid to ensure there’s nothing on the tyres!  It was pretty strange.
