Talking about Africa, photography, and storytelling—with my framed canvas prints setting the scene behind me. Honoured to be invited by Lionstudiosframing to judge the local print exhibition. So much talent and heart from our local photographers. Moments like these remind me why we do what we do.

That sounds like such a powerful memory, Robert. I can imagine how breathtaking that sky must’ve been, pure brilliant starlight. Love how you tied it to that poem, too. Perfect connection. 😍

I love that thought, Sue. The night sky really does stir up those big questions. Makes you wonder how small we are in the grand story of the universe.

I feel that, Jennie. The stars can be overwhelming in the best way. Do you find it calming or a bit intense?

The morning light and mist capture that peaceful fall atmosphere beautifully. Mist over the river and those warm autumn tones are just perfect!
