A cozy cluster of earth-toned mushrooms nestles on the forest floor in Pretoria, South Africa. There's a touch of whimsy in the way they huddle together, like tiny umbrellas after a rain shower.

📍Church Square, Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa.

📷: my own personal photos

Took a stroll through the old city of my hometown. Regardless of the decay, these 19th century buildings are still beautiful to marvel at in real life. My eyes couldn't phathom what they were seeing. The scale of these buildings, the detail, the colour. To compare these to the old photos of the same square, hurts to see history and beauty disappear. But I still got to capture these architectural masterpieces.

Slowly realising that I actually live in an extremely weird city. Johannesburg is big. I did not realise how big Johannesburg is because I've lived in a tiny desert town and here. The Johannesburg Metro Area is home to 10 million people. The city sprawls so far north it is practically joined to the neighbouring Pretoria in a contiguous urban and suburban outgrowth of almost 15 million people. Most cities have like, 0.1-3 million people in the fairly vague urban area and maybe double that in the ambiguous metropolitan periphery. Johannesburg City proper alone holds almost 6 million people. Of course, what land belongs to a city is a crapshoot but the point stands, the Johannesburg-Pretoria Megacity Sprawl is weird.

If you get on the highway near Ennerdale and drive north towards Pretoria, you can drive over 100km without ever hitting rural land or countryside. I actually had to do this run one time at my old job because we had customers in Ennerdale and Pretoria who both needed me to fix things. This wasn't the case when I moved back here in the late 2000's, Pretoria and Johannesburg used to be separated by a bunch of farmland, that's largely been carpeted over with enormous housing estates.

Eyeballing some graphs it looks like majority of other cities like this (huge headcount but also sprawling) are in China and India, big industrial sprawls at relatively low density constructed quickly, or really old cities that gradually ate up the landscape. The rest are mostly sprawling older cities in other countries, like Johannesburg, Lagos, Los Angeles and Rio, and then you get New York and Jakarta and Metro Manila where you've squeezed a city onto a postage stamp.

Just stumbled upon this cozy cluster of mushrooms here in Pretoria, each one nestling against the next like nature's own little community. They create a charming patchwork on the forest floor, bringing life to the underbrush.
