They ARE Zulu's, the boy with the stick is a zulu and number's 8-12 are all from a zulu town in the middle of nowhere, they are very traditional.

Lance,
a jumper and the reflection of her shoulder is behind it if that is what you are refering to (dirty bastard!).


Anyway, these are a couple of shots i did yesterday and today, I used the 50mm f.1.8 so there are a couple of nice sharp ones.
What do u think of the B&W??

50mm f/1.8 -
1. 2. 3.

18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 -

4. - the lack of sharpness in this is because it was at 200mm 1/40th, i did 9 shots, this was the least blurred.

A couple of color versions:
1. 2.

I have just come back from a pretty incredible experience today. We left in the morning and took my dad's freind's private jet to an airport an hour and a half away, we then flew in his chopper along the coast to arguably the world's best golf course to play 18 holes with Ernie Els and Lee Westwood (they kicked our asses!). Not only that, but we saw 2 great whites from the chopper!

I wasn't allowed to take shots of Ernie because the other photographer (using a 5D and lance's 100-400mm) was privatley assigned, but i got heaps of lee westowood.

Anyway, here are a couple.

From the chopper:
1. 2.

The transport:
3.

On the course:
4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

The competition:
10.

It was an awesome day... And it was free!!

Harry

Wow! Pretty impressive experience... How did you get involved?

vp_s_wagon

My dad is a mining exec, he has lots of connections in high places...

DR1F7

All I can say is I am jealous that is all.


Ps, that photographer has a good taste in lenses

vp_s_wagon

Moment,
Damn that lens is sharp, i hate my lens every time i see what urs is capable of!

Nickle

Hey Harry, I know I haven't been on for ages to see what ur up to but it looks like you're really getting around
I love the tribal shots you've done and the ones of your sister look really great too. Monkeys scare the shit out of me tho so I don't like that one....... hahaha.
The golf course looks like fun and the shot of the plane is awesome.
Don't really know what else to say tho... When are you off to the UK? (Is that the next place??)
Anyways, keep up the good work and enjoy urself.
Luv Nic xx

SITH 1

Dont step over the mark

TD 06

awesome, no3 is great!

Haven't checked in here for a while - Harry; looks like a sweet trip. That golf experience must've topped things off. My favourite stuff is on the last page; that picture of the boy with the spear is rather cool - great your getting up close. I prefer the Colour versions of the images tbh - a bit more life and vibrance to them which suits the photos. The girl in the last post is pretty hot too haha.

Look forward to seeing more.

evaded

The photos have come along way. I love these latest shots. Particularly the golf experience.

You have no idea how insanely jealous I am.

Ernie Els has been a child hood hero of mine. So jealous im lost for words.

vp_s_wagon

Thanks everyone, I'm loving it! The chick is my sister.

DR1F7

Love the photo of your sis facing the camera.

No 3 is prolly one of my most fav photos of yours its awesome!

vp_s_wagon

Cheers Lance,
Seeing as people seem to enjoy number 3 so much It thought I would put up another version of it:
The EXIF for it is: Nikon D80 with a Sigma 18-200mm @18mm, f/3.5, 1/20s ISO 1000

Cheers
Harry

DR1F7

Nah, the other version is still alot better!

ps, does your sister know a forum board macks on her?

vp_s_wagon

Yeh, i like the other version heaps more too.
Yeh, she knows. She's a girl, they love compliments... She likes it.

DR1F7

hahaha fair enough, good on her!

jimeegee

Yeah Harry, nice....number 3 is definetely one of your best pics in my opinion. Keep it up man!

`Nova

glade to see you're having a ball harry.. just caught up on all the stuff i've been missing..

the 39 ford you have taken photos of is fantastic.. my family has restored a few similar and is part of clubs that have nothing but in them.. i havent taken photos of them for a while though and not since i've had my dslr because their meets have beeen few and far between... and yes.. i'd believe it would run, i've seen some in far worse condition that still run!

south africa is a beautiful place and your photos have just proved that more so.. out of the last set from london, number three ftw don't like the second one you've put up, not enough attention to detail.. would like to see it in full colour though?

vp_s_wagon

Full Color:

I prefer B&W

Harry

Ghetto Panda

I actually prefer the colour version but yeah that's me. Looks more detailed.

`Nova

agree'd.. i really like the full colour one.. shows it up so much better..

just a quick one though.. i heard somewhere that taking photos in historical places is forbidden in england..

either way.. well done
