So I have been working like crazy lately which is a good thing but I hate that I have so much new work to show and no where to show it. I mean, I really liked the way my old website looked but it really just was too much distraction as apposed to just showing off the photographs. It’s always hard to think of the best way to showcase online because I do not like Flash based websites purely because I have seen so many people having issues using them and in the end I think I wanted to make sure that mine would be as user friendly as possible. The website I had also never allowed me to put the photos up at a decent size so with all this in mind I have created a new one from scratch and although I am still filtering through photographs and updating the content, there is a good amount up so that I can release it.

If you have a chance, make sure to check out www.marcusmaschwitz.co.uk and have a look. As I said I am still busy uploading content so keep checking back.

This is a screen grab of the home page, hope you like.

I just took a walk down to the park by our house to photograph a panoramic. The snow is still belting down a lot so I will go shoot more a bit later when the snow is thicker. I love the snow.

This photograph is about 270 degrees composed of 21 photographs. Click on the image to see it a bit bigger, it might be easier to appreciate like that.

I said earlier today that I would try and post the panoramic I shot during sunset so here it is. I photographed it with my 50mm and the total picture is stitched from 42 still photographs.

Please click it to view the image larger because that is the only way to appreciate it.

I shot this skyline of Johannesburg the other day from the rooftop of my friends building during sunset. I was busy with a shoot and saw this and ran up to catch a shot. The sun goes down super quickly in winter though.

I did a little road trip to Harrismith on saturday morning to shoot some band photographs at Woodstock 9. Unfortunately I had a work emergency that forced me to leave earlier than I had hoped so I never got to shoot most of the bands that I wanted to but work is work and I try my best to make sure that all my clients get the best service possible. Anyway, I shot this panoramic, of my car, on the way there and I really like it. I love that the road I am parked on is totally empty and the sky and the green fields. Hope everyone else had a good weekend.

For some reason the sunset has been amazing a few days in a row. It’s great but now I look like a sunset addict or something. Haha. I shot this about 5 minutes ago off the roof again and really love the way the clouds look and the sun rays.

On a different note, going to see NOFX now so hopefully I will sneak my camera in and be able to shoot some stuff to post tomorrow. Have a good evening. M

My buddy Alan smsed me this afternoon to tell me to have a look at the sunset. Funnily, I was already up on the roof shooting it. He is a videographer and we always let each other know when we see something amazing. So this photo is a panoramic I shot (17 photographs stitched together) of the sunset over Johannesburg with an amazing rainbow on the other side. It really was incredible and the size of the photo on here really does it no justice, but please click on it for the bigger image just to get a bit of an idea.

The sunset tonight was really amazing over Johannesburg. I sadly wasn’t close enough to town to get the photo I would really have liked to shoot so this one will have to do. I just photographed it from my roof after getting a call from the misses to have a look.
