Tuning In: Local beauty Skylah to feature online
She entered a photographic competition and her pic was selected to feature.
THE last week of February is upon us and albeit some of us are grateful to say goodbye to the heat, according to legend, March is worse.
Beautiful local young Skylah Atherstone has been featured in PPMC Magazine SA. Skylah entered one of her photos taken by Snapdragon Photography (local photographer Jackie Kelly from Umkomaas) and posted it to an online magazine called PPMC Magazine SA for a photogenic competition. Excitingly, her photo was selected for issue 11 and I am so looking forward to seeing it.
