These photos were taken between Vredenburg and Van Rhynsdorp on the west coast of the Western Cape, South Africa. A few tips to take in consideration if you want to photograph the flowers is to select a sunny and wind free day. If the sun is not shining, most of the flowers will not open. A windy day will give you blurry photos, unless you are a very experienced photographer. Take enough batteries for your camera as you will likely end up six to eight hours walking in the field. And lastly take the right shoes, those that are comfortable and easy to clean. Have a look what my shoes looked like at the end of the day of all the flower pollen - needless to say I could wear them only for field trips afterwards.
