One of the things I've really enjoyed doing is taking photographs of the world around me, be it with the camera on my phone or with my Nikon. Since the rains began the lowvelt has changed colour, very quickly. It was a dusty brown in colour as all the plants had retreated into themselves to survive the five months without rain. Now that summer is coming, so have the rains. The plants are blossoming and a new generation of baby animals are slowly emerging.
Here is just a sample of what I see around me.

| A flower, from one of my father's orchids |

| A skink that took temporary residence in my brother's helmet |

| The Lowvelt from the loft porch |
 |
| The vow of the mountians |
 |
| The lowvelt with the mountains as a back drop |

My brother's newly acquired 'pet'.
If it stinks you, don't worry, you won't die. |
