Golden opportunities often occur not far from home, but we do not always see the beauty in our own backyard.

My lovely friend and her two gorgeous friesian colts on their farm in the countryside.

Taken late afternoon in a friend's backyard, it's amazing what treasures you can find by just looking around you.

Acacia karoo (Kameeldoring). Taken while on a hike with a friend in a nature reserve in Bloemfontein, Free State South Africa.

My first attempt at architecture photography, leaning towards an abstract approach

Their bond is strong and their love for each other runs deep, these two are inseparable.

Decided to lay on the ground in front of my horse and take a picture of what one would typically see if you fall off a horse

Couldn't resist pulling over next to these train tracks and capturing that beautiful South African sunset

Taken while on a hike with a friend in Bloemfontein in the Free State province

Attended a wedding on this beautiful farm in Clarens, Free State (South Africa), and again the scenery was amazing.

A South African beast bathing in the sun with dried mud peeling from his reptilian scales and a brave little leaf resting on the crocs' back.

Kosi Bay Bridge

Bloubergstrand kites

Again, taken in Clarens, Free State, one of the most beautiful places in South Africa.

These cactuses are the size of a persons' hands, and I am jealous of their view.

These are tiny cactuses in a planter, but I felt like the mountains in the background make these look like big cactuses somewhere in a Texan desert.

Took this picture while visiting my friend at her home on a farm outside my hometown. This little donkey looked so sad, so I gave it a carrot.
