Swellendam has hospitality down to an art. From camping under the stars to five-star stays, there’s a warm welcome here for everyone. The only problem? You’ll probably wish you’d stayed longer.

I rudely interrupt this misty morning broadcast for a little pop of colour closer to home.

The new issue of the MT digital magazine is out, and this time it’s all about Swellendam. The place I’ve called home for the past ten years, seen through my eyes and dressed, nogal, in green and tangerine.

A little architecture, a little nostalgia, a few wild ideas and plenty of love for this small town with a very big heart.

Swellendam, this one’s for you. Link in bio.

And that’s a wrap on my one-hour misty morning shoot grid.

Thank you for sticking it out with me through the mist, the pink grass, the spiderwebs, the endless close-ups and what was clearly becoming a bit of an obsession.

I promise I’ll move on now.

If you don’t like pink grass, mist or spiderwebs, you’d better unfollow me now.

A little reminiscing about some of my epic adventures in the mist.

The first was just outside Stanford, where I had the models step into the mist without makeup because we were still on our way to the location. It was completely unplanned and absolutely beautiful.

Then there was one very early morning on the dam wall in Swellendam, where I photographed — you guessed it — a spiderweb.

That one was a winner.

Looking back, I think I’ve always had a bit of a thing for mist, unexpected moments and the tiny details hiding in plain sight.

There is something about mist that reveals a whole other world.

My goodness, how many spiders are there in a field?!

Suddenly every web is there, catching the light, strung between grasses and glowing with tiny drops of water. Lines I would normally never notice become impossible to miss.

I love that about mist. It makes the unseen visible.

For a little while, an ordinary field becomes something completely different — full of delicate lines, hidden details and a thousand tiny things quietly going about their business.

I’ve been noticing a very keen interest in photography and design from my daughter lately, so naturally I did what any sensible mother would do…

I handed her a proper camera.

And now I’m starting to wonder if I should just call it an early retirement and hand over the business.

I think I might have found the perfect theme for my next issue.

As I’m sure you’ve noticed, I’m stalling. But honestly, it’s mainly because of workload, so I’m giving myself a little room to let this one reveal itself rather than forcing it into being.

And I keep coming back to this:

THE COLOUR OF NOSTALGIA

It feels like it could go somewhere really beautiful. Not necessarily nostalgia in the obvious sense, but colour, memory, places, objects, landscapes, old things, familiar feelings… those little visual moments that somehow transport you somewhere else.

And perhaps, for once, I’m going to let the idea find me rather than chasing it.

And just as I vow not to shoot pink grass again for the rest of the year… this happens.

So, obviously, I had no choice.

There it was, disappearing into the mist, catching the softest light and looking far too beautiful to ignore.

I’m beginning to accept that my pink grass obsession may be a problem.

But honestly, I’m not ready to seek help just yet.

Every now and then, I get to hang out in Buffeljags and remember that life doesn’t always have to move at full speed.
