Few are given the privilege to spend time with beings that are so gentle, humble and connected to the earth as the Nguni cattle are. I was one of those few. My time capturing them left me in awe of these radiant animals.
I spent hours first watching their movements and how they connect to one another, how they peacefully observe everything around them in gentleness.
These gentle animals shared their space with me. They allowed me to photograph their feelings. I particularly felt moved when they accepted me to capture the bond between them and their young. The Bull sat lovingly and listened to what I had to say while I moved closer and closer to him…
This Series of 7 Sacred Nguni – are truly works of art that capture the essence of what I experienced on my journey with them.
