I am a Freelance 3D Visual Effects Supervisor working in the Film and Television visual effects and animation industry. Animation is not my only passion. South Africa is a beautiful country with an average of 320+ warm sunshine days a year. I try and spend as much time possible outdoors, and love photographing nature for inspiration.
I am especially interested in Nature photography, Macro photography, and Stapeliads (a type of succulent mainly found in the arid regions of Southern Africa).

"Unas de las mejores paginas sobre flores.
Ademas de buena calidad, vienen las fotos identificadas.
Un trabajo no tan solo de fotografiar pero tambien de identificacion.
Una pasion de fotografo que se siente viendo las fotos una despues de la otra."2nd September, 2006

"There's little doubt Martin's photos of stapeliads are amongst the finest photos for this group of plants available on flickr.com, and certainly they are some of the best I've seen anywhere. Simple, elegant and beautiful he manages to brings out the magnificent in these already stunning flowers.
I look forward to further additions by this photographer."2nd June, 2006
