The New Lantern represents my latest body of work shot on my first visit to South Africa. For my wife, Natasha, it was her first visit back home in six years.

The images of my trip shows my introduction to both her family, friends and the landscape she left behind.

For those of you familiar with my work, there is an uncanny resemblance to all past projects, particularly from the Fens and America.

The thumbnails are laid out in the order in which they were taken. In time, Natasha, will add titles and text that will heighten the significance of both the people, places and objects in the photographs.
