Description
This is one of my more sombre experiences I captured: A dam I spend much of my time at, which has dried up during the drought. To see the fish die was a heart breaking experience and therefore this photo has special meaning for me. The dam has since been stocked with fish again and new life is everywhere to be seen.
I dedicate this to my niece who was murdered, one of the main reasons for my absence lately. For those interested to read about the battle to have her death investigated, you can read here.
Thank you for all the messages and mail I received recently, I love you all.

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?

I hope you all had a good weekend.Thank you for all the messages and mail I received recently, I love you all.

Fantastic!
Oh Piet, how I've been thinking of you and your family for those long silent days from you... Exceptional picture in selective mode, with a great POV, formidable details, and good illustrating song in tribute and compation to your niece I read the article and I'll forward to my friends Wish you serenity and wish that justice is going to come soon Your friend Magali
My deepest sympathy go out to you & your family for the death of you niece. This is a wonderful dedi to her & its great to have you back mate! Take care Piet
Welcome back, stunning and heartfelt image.
Wonderful composition, Piet--and such a horrible thing to have happen in your family. I hope you all can find someone who will help you catch this horrible murderer! I'm sure that given the distance even an attorney here in the US would be of no help, but hopefully someone there in SA will see this and step up to the plate in the name of justice. You're in my thoughts and prayers, dear friend!
Really have missed you, my friend. Extremely saddened by the news of your niece. Something, unfortunately, that is most common in my country every day. The photo is a poignant image in reflection of your feelings.
wonderful life spring forth from the dry cracker soil love the selective coloring !!AWESOME WORK !!! so sorry to hear about the dam ... so much happening to this planet ...sigh
My thoughts are with you Piet .....Your pict is great !
All our Rosity friends are much more eloquent than I. This is a striking image to remember Lizel by. Again, my condolences to you and your family.
Welcome back and this is a lovely dedication to your niece. This picture shows that there is hope even in despair.
You have had too many tragic events to endure my friend! I pray to God that you shall have the strength to surpass all of these demoralizing events!

Oh my! How horrible that this crime is not investigated rapidly. What in the world is the matter with the authorities??? I will keep you and your family in my prayers. God Bless all of you.

OMG !!! So impressiv picture and what selectiv coloring and composition !!! Excellent my dear Piet and very nice postwork here !! Sweet dedi for our friend too !!! Good day and be good, as always ;)
Ciao Piet, I join my thought to the one's of Magali, we have speak about you several times last weeks together, and we where preoccupated for you and your family. A tragic and marvelous shot, and a touching thought for Lizel. Life is sometimes so cruel, but in each desert, there's always a flower who grow up, even in terrible conditions... I'll write you in private ;o)))) Hugs my friend, I think to you Nathalie
Interesting idea!
so sorry to hear youve lost your niece. i wish to read about it, but the link you provided here on this page is not working. i dont know if its my computer. my sincere feelings of pain for your loss.
The words do not replace the sorrow, I can just with all my heart accompany you in thought Piet....! I am very sensitive to this magnificent image which translates your emotional state the life is too inequitable! ;-((((
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your niece...
a beautiful, symbolic dedication... what an enormous emotional shock for you and your family, my sympathy to you for your sorrow. this article is very disturbing..... such brutality, seemingly, going unpunished and not properly investigated... hopefully you will recieve justice from the law to solve this terrible crime and the mystery that surrounds it.....
Superb contrast! :)
I am so sorry to hear about your neice. I wish you luck with your search. A powerful, evokative image...glad to hear life has returned.
I am so sorry, so sorry! Photo is perfect as always!
