Eric Tollner | Red Earth

Last week granted me a very rare and beautiful gift, to witness and photograph the beautiful Aurora southern lights. For us here in South Africa it is a sight seldom, if ever, seen on our shores. #southernlights #aurora #capetown #southafrica

@marc_tudhope Thank you Marc 🙏🏻

@redearthza Congrats Eric

The new website is live! I’m proud of this, it’s a testament and a life story to decades of hard work, being on the workbench from the age of 18, tons of commitment, lots of sacrifices, many long hours, and blood sweat and tears in equal measures. redearth.co.za

@Mish1506 @CapeTown @RyanWarneke @capeLens @TableMountainNP @Kaapstad Thank you Michelle! 🙏🏻

@ISSAboveYou @Space_Station @CityofJoburgZA @CityofCT @lovecapetown @SABCNews So amazing to see our lovely country from your perspective! I follow the ISS’s movements closely and photograph it when I can 😊 this was taken in November just north of Cape Town!

Good afternoon South Africa 🇿🇦: This @Space_Station pass begins just south of Cape Town and heads across to @CityofJoburgZA - which we ALMOST get to see - except right at that moment we had a Loss of Signal event. @CityofCT @lovecapetown @SABCNews Jan 23, 2023 12:05 SAST

@LuckyGordy @MrCPT @CapeTown Haha!! If I see Dave’s boat I generally go in the other direction 😂 All magic and calm out there this morning ✨

@MrCPT @CapeTown @redearthza and you go out here in a canoe?

@robbyricc Thanks Robby!

Eric The Viking using impressive calculations to photo the ISS as it passes the moon.

@MarkSampsonCT Never a dull moment here!

Flight delayed due to strong tailwinds and arriving at East London airport before it opens. That’s a new one.

Saturday night entertainment, capturing the International Space Station passing in front of the moon! Shot between Simonstown & Cape Point, south of Cape Town. #CapeTown @Space_Station @visitsimonstown

@robbyricc Thanks Hawkeye! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

My mate, Eric the Viking, sent me this picture of his latest photographic exploit from False Bay, Cape Town. This one's a masterpiece. @redearthza
