Hi all! As you've probably guessed, my name is Gareth, I'm 27, and based in the sunny city of Durban, South Africa. By day, I'm a Creative Director at a local media agency, which helps fund my car and photography addictions - two of the most expensive "hobbies" one could choose I guess?
I've joined Steemit on the suggestion of my mate @nelkeljdm, as I have a ton of photos and adventures to tell and share that never leave my hard drive.
I mostly shoot landscape/starscape photos, along with automotive and live music photography. I'm also lucky enough to have the chance to travel quite frequently, so my photos and stories will be scattered from many different places around the world.
In terms of equipment, my main camera is a Canon 6D with an assortment of lenses, and I've recently purchased a DJI Mavic Pro to try some aerial photography.
Anyway, enough about me. Below is a selection of some of my most recent photos - all pretty much taken within the last year. Hope you enjoy them, and I'll see you all again soon!

Welcome! You look like you've got a lot to offer. Steemit will be well worth your while.
Thanks! Lining up a few more posts soon for everyone to see
Wow that is some really spectacular shots you have there! Do you use any program to edit the photos like Adobe Lightroom to enhance the lighting?
Thank you! I shoot in RAW and then process them in Lightroom. I try to keep photos fairly "natural" looking - not a fan of the overly-processed look. Then use Photoshop for minor touch ups, such as removing dust specks etc.
Did you take all these pictures?
Correct. All photos are my original work.
Very cool. You have some sweet equipment and great angles
Hi Gareth, great to see a couple more South African's joining Steemit! I'm sure your content will be appreciated. Good luck!
That is all awesome photos and welcome to steemit.
Thanks!
