I took these photos on the way to the D Hani creche last week. We had to go down a few km’s of dirt road passing recycling centres, scrap yards and an old mine dump to get there and we passed 2 guys burning a tyre on the side of the road so we stopped.

Awesome!!!!!!!
Interesting photo’s! Eeuw! I can’t begin to imagine what it smelt like though!
Very cool pics J… That first one has such a mood to it.
Amazing photo’s.
You seriously get the coolest pics!
These have to be my favourite photos from the Lent for Liam function at Cool Runnings earlier today. In fact, I’d go as far as to say, they’re my favourite photos in a very long time. I think it’s because it shows the kids not worrying about my camera and having so much fun learning...

Cool pics and cool dudes 
So glad to find your blog! This set is gorgeous. Very emotive processing. Love!
These are stunning! The concentration on the faces captured beautifully.
I love the concentration on their faces
Aaaw man- what special moments
Love the one where Bradley is holding the stick like a spear…the bokeh is amazing in that one!
These are great. Great colors, great faces.
great shots I love them , boy hood is such fun.
WOW! these are wonderful. I can see why you love them. so much emotion in them. fabulous. great job in the dark bar, too. How’d you do it?
Looks like the boys had a great time! The photos turned out really well! Thanks for sharing your weekly winners!
Trying to Reach is such an astoundingly awesome picture, I am just mesmerized by it, by Bradley, by the feeling of it. xox
Absolutely great shots, Jeannette! They look like little “profi’s” and I loved your little story behind
..and again, your little boy is adorable how he wants to play also, highly concentrated and with the help of his big brother! It’s just perfect!

The boys looked like they were taking their pool playing very seriously! Great shots, I love the lighting.
Oh wow !! These are amazing photos! I can imagine Connor getting a little frustrated though, being shorter! Bradley and Cameron’s faces of concentration are brilliant! I am surprised they allowed them to play though
All of those shots are just beautiful!
But I have to say, there is just something about kids and pool tables. I love watching kids play pool, there is nothing more fun than that!
WOW generally the bars don’t let kids play on their pool tables. These are lovely pictures.
Beautiful photos – so atmospheric
Stunning pics, you really captured THE MOMENT !!
These are stunning Jeanette
what a hoot – those kids are so into that game.
fabulous pics – i hope you get them published – it looks like a really creative brief for a kids clothing store.
you are frightfully clever !
These are AWESOME!!!!
There have been a few of these signs floating around Johannesburg lately, and they’re now causing people to talk!
I got an email from the organisers of the campaign a few days ago explaining all about the campaign and asking if I wanted to get involved, because they’d noticed the photos of Joburgers on my site. ...

I met up with a whole lot of tweeters in Newtown this morning for a photowalk, and I really enjoyed it. We didn’t get to really spend time in Newtown during the Worldwide photowalk a few weeks ago, and I’ve always wanted to walk around there, so this was an ideal opportunity. I learnt...

Awesome photo’s Jeanette, especially the last one. The wire on the bus seemed 3D, like it was real and can be taken off.
At the end of every term, the karate dojo has an open day where the parents are invited to watch the class. I’d booked it in my diary when we first got confirmation of the date, at the beginning of the term, just in case I forgot about it. I was so glad I was...
