V&A Waterfront, South Africa

I spent many a day/night at Waterfront when I lived in South Africa. Walking around Waterfront that day taking these photos brought back great memories.

Canon 1D Mk III with 24-105mm L IS.

 

 

The “table cloth” starting to cover Table Mountain.

Seals in harbour.I couldn’t decide between the next 2 photos so used them both. A Bell UH-1 (Huey) that’s used for movies and heli’s tours. Once again struggling to decide as they both work for me. I prefer the portrait a little more though.

World of Birds II

It’s part two of a three “parter”.

While in South Africa we visited the World of Birds. Well worth a visit.

Sunsets in Cape Town

I spent two weeks over October and November in Cape Town, I forgot how beautiful the sunsets are.

The first sunset was taken in Paarl about 60km/40miles from Cape Town. I was chasing the sun from one side of the valley to the other to capture these images.

It started like this.

And before I knew it was in the car trying to get a better angle of the mountain range and chasing the sun. I started with the North side of the valley.

Then moved over to the south side where I captured the Afrikaans language monument.

Then drove up the mountain and captured Table Mountain from a distance.

My last night in Cape Town and this is the sunset I was gifted. I haven’t seen this for a few years and reminded me how much I miss Cape Town.
