   A great series of action shots Joubert. It quite makes my jaw ache seeing all that vigorous and competitive gaping 🙂

   Cool photos Joubert! When are you starting your own YouTube channel… you’ll be a mega star way before leaving school! 😉

      He had so much fun, giving us a running commentary of what he saw happening through his lens!

   Joubert word ‘n kranige fotograaf…gee hom nog ‘n paar jaar en hy gaan groot hoogtes bereik daarmee! Pragtig, Joubert!

    Mesmerising. I hope Joubert didn’t fill up too many cards. ❤

       Thanks, Tracy! Joubert uses a pretty big memory card just in case of events like these unfolding in front of his lens. And then I try to download the photos every evening just to be sure.

    Joubert–I love these! Yikes–their mouths are quite……large, aren’t they? Thank you so much. What special treat, in the middle of the week, no less! You are a wonderful photographer.
