Ode to Dead Horse

My Sondag-stank

Verbrande, smeulende spiermassa voor my op hierdie Sondag,
my Sondag-stank.

Gallop die ewigheid in...
Hardloop uit my gedagtes uit!


Die familie van agt
vermink, vermoor en verbrand,
is nou twee.


Jou kake geklem sodat daar nooit weer 'n stang kan ingaan.
Jou hoewe opgetrek tot naby jou ingewande.
Jou swaar metaalkombers.
Jou glimlaggende tande.


Gallop die ewigheid in...
Hardloop uit my gedagtes uit!

Transplant Athletes

Living examples of the need for organ donation. Disciples for organ transplants. That is how Willie Uys, chairman of the South African Transplant Sports Association (SATSA) describes the athletes competing in the South African Transplant Games.

This month is organ donor month and the South African Transplant games was held in Durban over the weekend. 

In South Africa there are 4300 people on the transplant waiting list, but because of the scarceness of donors only 600 transplants was done last year.

Before Sunrise - Ballet Dancers at Voortrekker Monument


Before Sunrise is a freestyle group of ballet dancers, traceurs and photographers that collaborate to have photo's and video's taken before sunrise at different spots in and around Pretoria. 

Sigma 12-24mm 

This time around they went to the Voortrekker Monument and I tagged along for some random photos.


Great vibe and definitely an avenue I would like to explore...
