Out in the bush on a Game Drive, you look at life from different viewpoints.
In this image my goal was to capture the outdoors with the look of older image quality #BlackAndWhitePhotography with emphasis on the depth of the clouds in the background you notice the distance that is endless in the photo. #TravelPhotography #LandscapePhotograph…Read More -

I do a lot of photography for my church, and I am always fascinated by people’s hands.
Photos will be grainy due to high ISO and B/W conversion I do in Nik Silver Efex.

About Me
Photography is an art medium that speaks to me the most as an outlet for my creativity. I especially love landscape and architectural photography. Landscape photography gives one time to think, discover and create. It gives me great pleasure to find silence, solitude, simplicity and sometimes coincidence and surprises in nature.
Over the years I have discovered I am naturally draw to black and white (B&W) images, especially in B&W architecture. The biggest reason, other than the timeless appeal of B&W, lies in the fact that B&W architectural photography, by its nature, gives me more freedom to depart from the visual reality. Therefore, for me, the joy of being creative comes from identifying the underlying beauty and potential from a more visible and obvious colour reality, then transforming it to a black and white vision. This holds true for landscape photography as well.
My use of natural light, tonal contrast, colour, texture, and movement are the qualities I look for when I am out there and what makes my images unique. Through my images, I want to offer the world my perspectives and express my connections with the subjects that I capture.
Thank you for posting this beautiful image, Hennie. Your image is sharp, clean and well-presented. What adds impact to this image is the exposure. Underexposing the background and adding light to your subject instead created mood and mystery. It’s a well-balanced composition; well done Hennie.
