Did you know Kierran Alenn is one of KwaZulu-Natal's prodigies of photography. He was one of the early creative and innovative adopters of drone footage. His 'Enter Durban' film clip was acclaimed as one of the best efforts to promote this metropolis in the last decade. Kierran spent two years collecting drone footage to finally put this masterpiece together. Please see this clip on YouTube.

His efforts to capture the splendour of the Drakensberg have been equally spectacular. You will be mesmerised by the Amphitheatre.

Kierren Allen owns and operates his own photographic agency, 'Kierran Alenn Photography'.
