Country: South Africa
Joined: Feb 2008

I was born and still live in Africa. I live on a gamefarm /lodge close to a small town “Tolwe” 60km from the Botswana border.
I love photography with a passion and have been taking photos since I was a small girl.
I recently started with a digital camera and still have stacks to learn, unfotunately I really live in the bush and can not go for classes.
I have the same problem with a computer that I recently bought, I am not computer skilled at all. Please have patience, will take time but I will get there !
I am a nature lover, love gardening and also do landscaping when I get the time.
My captures are all realistic and nature inclined.
My goal, and dream, is to show the beauty of Gods Creations on Earth, through the lenz of my camera, the way I see it.
I am not a pro-photographer but hope to get there one day !
Please , take the yourney and just enjoy it !
