Here's a bonus image, one that I seriously considered converting to #monochrome to be part of the same series. I decided in the end that the primary colours spread so perfectly between our tents makes this image much stronger.

A night photograph of three illuminated tents glowing in green, amber, and blue-white on a high mountain plateau, with a layer of mist partially obscuring the base of a dark, flat-topped rock formation silhouetted against a star-scattered sky. The tents sit half-engulfed in the drifting cloud layer, their warm inner light diffusing softly into the surrounding mist. The combination of the glowing camp, the floating rock buttress, and the star-filled sky above creates a magical, otherworldly atmosphere on the Drakensberg plateau.

It's worth posting this image as well - taken the previous day and looking North instead of South, this image spurred the goal of taking a series of 1:1 images across my #Backpacking trek through the #Drakensberg range.

Dark cliff faces and jagged rock spires emerge from a thick, billowing sea of cloud that fills the valley between the escarpment walls, with two small birds visible as tiny specks in the pale sky above. The black and white treatment and layered tones of dark rock against luminous white cloud give the image a graphic, almost ink-wash quality reminiscent of classical East Asian landscape painting.

Ocean In The Sky (2024)
Named for the wave like cloud inversion below, I took this image early morning, shortly after golden hour and before the heat of the day burned off the clouds below.

I was motivated to capture a 1:1 ratio image of this location as part of a photographic challenge I set for myself in the region.

Dark, needle-like basalt pinnacles rise from the foreground escarpment edge in sharp silhouette, framing a view across a vast sea of cloud that fills the valleys between multiple receding mountain ridges and serrated peaks stretching to the horizon. The black and white treatment deepens the contrast between the near-black foreground spires and the luminous white ocean of cloud below, with successive ridgelines fading progressively lighter into the pale background sky.

If you've still got a green ID book in South Africa, you might not for very much longer: techcentral.co.za/green-ids-da…

I understand the reasoning, but I tend to be a deeply nostalgic person, so this makes me kinda sad. :/

Green ID's days numbered as smart ID roll-out accelerates

The expansion is central to the home affairs department's plan to finally retire the much-defrauded green ID book.
