south africa meets san francisco.

so i’ve had this kind of mutual admiration society going on with neville trickett of the fabulous south african-based blog, saint verde digest. neville just intrigues me, and i love just about everything he creates. make that, everything. i featured his family home on unexpected guests here, and some of his beautiful photo collections here. so recently, i was chatting via email with another wonderfully creative south african, heather moore of skinny laminx, and she suggested neville and i do some sort of artistic collaboration. brilliant, i thought! thank you, heather for a wonderful idea! so neville and i got together and exchanged some favorite photos and went to work on our own little photographic projects. i took some of his images, and combined them with mine. there may not seem to be much method to my madness, but i just loved the combination of two random images side by side, south africa meets san francisco. neville’s image appears on the right, and mine to the left of these a little bit crazy diptychs. i hope you enjoy these if perhaps just for a bit a visual eye candy and maybe some small inspiration. thanks neville! this was fun! for more brilliance from neville, visit saint verde digest.
















































what a fabulous collaboration!!! I can see a book out of this. really great images that you matched – somehow. magic.
man oh man, victoria i now know why you are a legendary blog queen. what you have done with the images is just breathless !!!! I now understand how you have become an icon, it’s your unconditional generosity that inspires all your visitors to keep coming back for more and more and more
Wow! These are absolutely fantastic. I keep scrolling through over and over again. Marvelous!!
i’m so glad you like our little collaboration!
and thank you neville – you are way too kind! i loved your combined images, as well! amazing!! thank you so much for doing this with me.
It’s funny – there are two sites I almost always check out – sfgirlbybay and saint verde digest. They’re both fabulous in their own way and I love that you’ve now combined your creativity to bridge thousands of miles – I am impressed!
I love how the paired images bounce your eye back and forth until they almost become one. Just brilliant, thank you both!
victoria,
oh my… such an amazingly F*U*N concept, and the two of you did such fantastic matching! (Yes, I popped over to his blog via your hot link!) You must feel like a soaring spirit after posting such a magical project! Thanks for sharing it all with us.
