Memorial Service of Minister Roy Padayachie (Hamba Kahle)

Sorry I haven't posted a blog in some time, things have been so busy I have much to catch you all up on. Therefore I decided to start with the bad news first.

About a week ago I got a phone call at 10.30. A friendly ladies voice on the other side greets and quickly introduces herself. so quick that I still wasn't sure who was on the other side of the phone. She said she needed me to go photograph an event and its starting at 11.00 at Pretoria City hall. So without really thinking I grabbed my stuff and rushed to get there in time to follow the orders of the Unknown caller.

and so I ended up photographing the memorial service for Mr Roy Padayachie. I didn't know him personally but from what everyone at the service was saying, he seemed to be quite the legendary man. The service ended  with food and drinks for all the guests to celebrate a mans life.

As for the Unknown caller. She turned out to be a real friendly lady.  :)

Leuwald Botha Photograhy - The Klipdrift Gold experience [Heli-flip]

Hello everyone.
As you can see this is my first ever blog! ohhh yeeaahh. I am new to this so my layout may not be perfect yet and the photos may be slightly over sharpened (so please let me know if you think they are - I upped the sharpening for web use),or maybe even too small?? But I will get the hang of the whole thing.

If you have some blogging tips for me to make this blog better just drop a comment. Thanks.

and now for the sweet stuff:

On the 14th of December 2011, Klipdrift Gold had an amazing treat for a few lucky Klipdrift drinkers. The day started off at Parc Ferme Restaurant in Sandton where everyone had some drinks and appetisers. 2 Hummer Limos pulled up took the lucky winners for a Helicopter Flip around the whole of Joburg. If memory serves they flew over the Dome in Northgate, Soweto Towers, Soccer Stadiums and other Joburg attractions.
They landed the Helicopters at Hope school and the guests were shuttled to the Westcliff Hotel for a delicious meal and lots of Klipdrift Gold.

Yet again Klipdrift Gold out-did themselves on another 5star event for their loyal clients. I know everyone had a great time!
