Places to Visit

Pretoria
 
Zebra at Moreleta Kloof Nature Reserve 


When I started getting interested in photography, I really didn't know where to go for my photo opportunities. I am sure there are others that feel the same at times. I did a search on Google to find out where there are such opportunities, and to my amazement, not many others had written about such opportunities, yet, many online had asked the question: "Where are there good places to visit around Pretoria, where I could take pictures?" So, I decided to put together a list of places I had been to myself. My favourites are marked by a golden star.
  1. Moreleta Kloof Nature Reserve goldstar_thumb.gif
