Tara & Alan at Suikerbossie

Day of the flying shark

Every now and then I’ll try to put up a good photo from my archive. This was taken in June 2008, on a perfect morning in False Bay. I was out with Chris Fallows, tracking the famous flying sharks around Seal Island when this toothy character burst out of the water in pursuit of a seal snack.

The panhandle of the Delta

I’ve just returned from my latest assignment for GO magazine, which saw me fly to Maun, rent a car and check out the camping options in and around the panhandle of the Okavango Delta. No five-star stuff, just great, affordable lodges, the clearest river water I’ve ever seen and plenty of hippos nurking at night. Here are a few photographs. The story should be published in the September issue of the magazine.
