So i've spent time with friends traveling South Africa all for love of football. Excellent. Having the World Cup in your home country is absolutely amazing.

Archiving, trying to make sense of rolls and rolls of film, I found some really old photographs.Now I realise, that If we ever do travel through time, all we would end up doing is smell nostalgia....The Indie Armchair Theatre has been officially close for just under 1 year now (exception for the once a year obz fest). And wow, what awesome memories I have their. We have their. At the Armchair

I think (and feel) that if you enjoy photography, you automatically love the city more. This assumption excludes landscape and macro photographers though. But yes, the city holds a greater chance of "something happening". And if something supernaturally amazing doesn't happen, you're bound to observe someone doing something that makes you smile.Like an in-love couple at a coffee shop, a bunch of

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY NEW YEAR!How was your night? Hope it was rad. Mine was amazing.Superhero costume party in which majority of the people were not superheroes. instead, random cartoon heroes and famous protagonists...from Lara Craft to Princess Amidala to raver boy? Spent some quality time with polaroids. Polas are always a crowd pleaser. I love the way they develop themselves, and so does

What a day, yesterday that is. OK, the day before yesterday. We head out to the beach (Muzinberg), early, in a somewhat cramped vehicle, not filled with people but with surfboards instead. I was well surprised. The weather was great, perfect, somewhere along 23c. And with a plethora of surfers filling the ocean, the sea was glowing. Now. I have never surfed in my life, in fact, I have never

As expected, This years Obz fest was amazing (except for a few mishaps)."Rawkus", is the word I suppose, although, this year a lot more time was spent indoors.Friday night was amazing due to Fletcher, the Rudimentals and 340ml, but, Saturday was more interesting due to the people. I met interesting, random, beautiful people from the point we landed in obz . Places like the little house around the
