Kurt Darren and Snotkop @ Reefsteamers

Today was such a  fun day I had to blog it to share with everyone. Kurt Darren and Snotkop were shooting a music video at the Reefsteamers depot and as all video shoot go there were many retakes and much hurry and wait while scenes were set and makeup re touched or locomotives moved to where they had to be for the shoot. Not even the threat of a afternoon thunderstorm deterred everyone from enjoying the day.
The images that follow are a few of the ones I managed to capture including a few showing the behind the scenes action.

More images can bee seen on the Reefsteamers facebook page.

Gautrain - From Dreams to Reality

Well tonight I feel like I really got lucky. Yip I responded to one of the Facebook posts from Gautrain to send in my name and win one of 10 spots to the launch of the Gautrain History Book and their Book Club.  Lucky me I secured a spot and so began a night that will go down in my history as being a very special night thanks to the awesomeness that is Gautrain.

The instructions received from Gautrain were to meet at Rosebank station at 17h30 where we would be given our gold cards to proceed to Midrand and onto Gallager Estate for the event. At 18h06 we boarded an 8 car train bound for Midrand and needless to say I was like a kid in a toy-store riding the awesomeness of Gautrain.

On arrival at Gallager Estate we were given bookmarks (a hint of what was to come) and a welcome drink of sparkling wine and then the formal proceedings began. Highlights of the evening  a reading by Don Matera and of course receiving a copy of the Gautrain History Book.

Thank you Gautrain for an incredible evening. May your book club reach each and every South African and draw them to love reading books.
