South Africa: McGregor
Forgive me please for including more pictures in this gallery than any other. I simply love the place. It is perhaps the best restored Victorian village in South Africa. It is deep in the glorious Robertson wine valley, supremely photogenic and perhaps above all, the home of 'The Trossachs' where my son Matthew married my lovely daughter-in-law, Tara in 2005. Have a look at my pictures but better still, go and see for yourself!

The lake in the evening sun

The light has a different hue in the evening but still attractive for the landscape photographer. This single eucalyptus tree features in a number of my photographs. However long I waited the ripples on the water absolutely refused to subside - never mind, everything else about this country is perfect
