Jako Poolman. Office Chairs, BMT College (Jhb) March 2023
Probably not street photography in the strictest sense, but this was not meant as architectural photography. I just loved this image of the two chairs against the criss-cross of the security gate in the background.

Jako Poolman. Quadrants, Norwood (Jhb) March 2023
DPC Basic Course, Street photography workshop in Norwood. This should probably be part of a series, but I like this composition and it was the first time I took the nifty fifty out for a spin.

Jako Poolman. Spider web 1, Chartwell AH (Jhb) October 2023
I’m not sure if this is landscape or wildlife. But it seems to fit here. Took this while testing the new 50mm Rf 1.8 lens. Loved the bokeh of the light filtering through the leaves.

Jako Pooman. Norwood Model #1, Norwood (Jhb) March 2023
DPC Basic Course Portrait Workshop during March 2023. It was right after the basic course, so my fingers were still figuring the camera out. But this shot did not come out too bad, even though the aperture was not perfect for the portrait.

Great portrait, Jako, especially the expression and toning. However, this portrait could be enhanced by slightly darkening the highlights and a bit of skin retouching.

Moody Blue. Shot with my prime f/1.8 #NiftyFifty. Light source from the left with an external flash. we used a gold reflector on the left as well to bring in some warmth. The star of the show was the blue gel filter from Magmod. Camera: Canon 200D. ISO 400 | 50 mm | f/ 1,8 | 1/320 sec.

Maybe we should call it..mini wildlife. It’s a beautiful image, Jako, and it’s nice to see that you don’t miss the small things in Nature, which are also important and part of wildlife.
