Baby
Donkeys
These Donkey’s were found at another coal yard we
visited. No serious defects or injuries were found upon closer inspection,
but one cannot help but to wonder what the future holds for them?

Soweto

This Stallion was found at another typical coal yard. This

or injuries were found upon inspection, but a seriously loaded cart, was
awaiting him.

3D
Mules & Coal Cart
This Mule Cart was found along the way, in search of the
working equines of Soweto. The above technique is known as 3D or VR Lenticular
and was achieved with a special “Spherical Tripod Head”, courtesy
“Manfrotto Tripods”. The Lenticular lens & interlacing
was supplied by “Images in Motion”.

a bleeding wound on it’s side, due to home made cart harnesses.
