DANNY
STEYN PROFESSIONAL SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHER
Professional Sports Photographer Danny Steyn has been a competitive sportsman his whole life. As you will see from his professional sports photography showcased in these pages his sporting interest lies in the individual sports, not in team oriented games. While
living in South Africa, Danny represented four different
States in 6 different sports - track, cross country,
biathlon, motocross and windsurfing. He has three State
tiles and one National title to his credit.
From his early days as a successful track and field runner with several State and National successes, Danny moved on to more extreme sports.
While at University Danny started racing motocross and supercross, eventually winning the State title in 1983. His extensive professional sports photography of the South African motocross scene has appeared in the most hallowed of sports magazines, Sports Illustrated.
An unfortunate motocross accident in 1984 resulted in Danny lapsing into an
extended coma while they kept him alive in the hospital ICU. Several operations later Danny was back on the motocross circuit but he was never quite up to his former speed. To
date Danny has had 27 major surgeries and has broken most of
the bones in his body.
From motocross, Danny switched to the equally thrilling sport of competitive windsurfing, culminating with the South African National Windsurfing Championship title in 1992. Danny still competes today and has
won several Caribbean windsurfing titles.
Danny's feature articles and professional sports photography on
all sports appear regularly in the worlds premier windsurfing magazines including....
