Transkei










We went to Mkhambathi Nature Reserve for a week of well deserved rest. No cell phone coverage (except if you drive up a hill and walk a couple of metres) so you really can take a break from the world. These pictures was taken there and in the surrounding areas.

  1. Beautiful pics, but they look odd to me. Did you run them through HDR in photoshop? Or are they cellphone photos?

  2. Thanks for the comment. Because this was holiday pics and not for an assignment I decided to experiment with the post production. It is a filter that is almost the opposite of sharpening. To me it almost made them look like the pictures in a 3D viewer (a toy I had when I was little). What do you think?

  3. ah okay, now i can see it. it's an interesting effect. i think it works best with an object or person in the foreground, rather than a plain landscape. The ones i like the most are the zebra, gwegwe.54jpeg, the bull and the washing line.
