Gate 9, Asheville. Departure time 7:45. Status ON TIME. Except... Delta App and email: Your delayed flight might have caused a missed connection...
Super proud of the wife. Small contribution as an expert witness, but commendation by judges every time. She & the team at Forensic Anthropology Research Centre strives for world class excellence and compare well with anyone out there. #forensics #SouthAfrica
Last lunch before flying back to South Africa. Living on the edge, ordered a sandwich with lettuce... The flight can turn out to be fun... #USA2026
All you need is love... And some cash, but mostly love. #USA2026 #photography Seen at a store's outside display in Asheville, North Carolina.
As a kid, during school holidays, I would go with my father as he did rounds to farms in rural areas. As a treat, I could select a drink from a farm store or fuel station. Sprite. With a hole in the cap. Made the sweet last longer. Many years later, turns out kid likes the same. So we celebrated.
What lurks between these quiet shelving? Wish me good luck... Entering the den of inequity...
Also seen in Asheville, NC. One example at a pizza restaurant, so many other spots. It reads There is always room a tee our table. But if you're a federal agent, to enter past this point, we'll need to see a warrant signed by a judge.
Proof the Earth is flat & we are living in a simulation. Leaked footage from the Alien Area 51 files. /joke Time lapse taken with a fisheye lens looking straight up.
Lunch at Moon Mushroom in Asheville, NC. Despite the name and vibe, it's just normal pizza & hoagies. Or is there a special wink to get the good stuff? #USA2026
Thunder, star trails, the tail end of an aircraft, a passing car and the fireflies in front. I had to dive several times to cover the lens from more cars passing by. In a follow-up, trying to get closer, two aircraft passed by. Unfortunately by then, the sky had calmed down.
Fires in the sky. #OMSystem #photography #DXOPhotoLab Went out last night to photograph an old barn in the dark with strategically sweeps of light. While there, the weather behind me started up. Turned around and it turned into a 30 minute exposure.
What hides behind the bush? #WeekAForAbandoned #photography #AlphabetChallenge #OMSystem #DXOPhotoLab #USA2026 #NorthCarolina
Not yet... BUt we are not betting against it becoming #WeekAForAbandoned #photography #AlphabetChallenge #OMSystem #DXOPhotoLab
Drove my Chevvie to the bush and left it there. #WeekAforAbandoned #AlphabetChallenge
Seen on the road. Someone has been posting these placards and adding to them over the past week. Someone is not a fan of someone else. Any guesses who is not liked? #USA2026
Last night, viewing fireworks in the distance. Couldn't really get good photos of the fireworks, so did a bit of light drawing. See the previous post for results. This shows an explosion in the distance. #OMSystem #DXOPhotolab #lightpainting #drawing #LongExposure #handheld #photography

Magic still exist! Fireflies in Polk Country, North Carolina, lightpainting the sky. #OMS #photography #LongExposure
Olympus Superzoom 800. Thrift store find. Only $5 for which I was willing to take a chance. Everything checks out 100% working. Loaded film, will shoot over the next few weeks. Development will be slightly longer, after returning to South Africa. #film #35mm #filmisnotdead #photography #Olympus
