Reality television is a genre of television programming that documents purportedly unscripted real-life situations, oftenContinue reading “TOP ACTOR”

HOW TO MAKE A DECISION

How do you prioritise what’s important and whats not? What happens when you confronted with a decision? Tony Robbins said ‘it’s in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped’ and then I read another quote that jumped out at me ‘Unsuccessful people make decisions based on their current situation, successful people make decisionsContinue reading “HOW TO MAKE A DECISION”

Literally all Government Departments are crumbling, the power utility ESCOM has excuses for ‘load shedding’ and their corruption which is effectingContinue reading “QUESTION OF MOTIVES”

Shooting with the HASSELBLAD

Walking the streets of Porto with a camera like the Hasselblad is no easy task, its a heavy camera , it’s not easy to ‘point and shoot’ which means you need to be more aware of your surroundings to capture special moments.
