About Another detailed shot of the rockface near Loxton.

During fieldwork last year (2007), I spent quite a while in the Karoo and never had the time to really do anything with the photos I took. This is one of a series which I will update over time. As in the Karoo itself, one needs space and time to contemplate on its expanse, beauty and impact on yourselve. So I would like to introduce you slowly over time to one of the most captivating areas of South Africa - so often overlooked by tourism in favour of the dramatic and immediate splendour of so many other beautiful sights here. The beauty of the Karoo lies deeper than the skin - it needs time spent there to appreciate the vast expanses, the colours, natural textures and contrasts and even more the people.
The Karoo grows on you as you spend time there, I just hope my photographs can do some justice to the place.

Hi Stan - thanks for the vivid illustration/demo! This will surely get a few karoo farmers heart's skip a beat or two! I paticularly like this effect. I have Corel 11 - will it be able to do this?

The color within the rock works there seem consistently fascinating. While we were in the Antarctic we sailed with a real character from South Africa. From the few i have met i feel that your country is full of interesting characters...We are hoping to come your way next year. Many of your images have inspired the need to see the landscape soon. thank you for that.
Cheers Tim

Joggie, I'll spend in the Karoo all the time that you will give me with your photos. The colors are by now what impressed me more. Beautiful photo.
Be well.

Beautiful capture of the colour, detail and texture here, Joggie! I like your composition, with the diagonal lines of the rock running through the image, too.

Great textural and colour detail, Joggie! The lichen and herbacious detail adds quite a bit of interest! You did well to maintain good dof shooting at the upward angle!
