Beach Hotel

Beach Hotel, Strand Beach, South Africa

Loved the symmetry of this building. It almost looks like the sun or moon is rising in its centre, however its part of the actual building. I decided to go Black n White as the dunes and building are similar in colour...

Moss & Pipeline

Moss & Pipeline, Strand Beach, South Africa

They say that MOSS grows on the North Side of Trees. But in reality it prefers to grow in cooler, damp & shady areas. Actually in the Southern Hemisphere, moss will grow on the South Side of Trees. Would you believe that! I am totally unsure where it grows on a Pipeline, but it makes for an interesting image, don't you think? Here's to a great weekend. John

Access Granted

Access Granted! Strand Beach, South Africa

The countdown to an amazing summer has begun, but in the interim we're experiencing excellent weather over weekends... The beaches are open, access has been granted (as its FREE!).... So what are we waiting for?

Area Closed

Area closed to the public, Strand Beach, South Africa

A portion of the Strand Beach is cordoned off by fencing as part of a conservation effort. Very good idea...

Come on Summer!

Come on summer! Taken at the Strand, CAPE TOWN, ZA

The Fallen

This is one of the pics I took while hiking the Pipe Track a while ago. It was quite challenging for me, but as I had my handy Samsung NX300 with me I took my time if I saw something interesting to snap away - which also give me much needed rest! LOL!

These trees look like they were uprooted and it can be attributed to a couple of factors. I could not keep my eyes away from it... Hope you like  it as much as I do!

Vineyard Entrance

Loved the trees along this Vineyard Entrance, behind the Polkadraai Strawberry Farms.

Pana-Doors

I took this image a while ago, while hunting for a school for my son to attend. If I remember correctly, this was one of the side entrances to a warehouse type door covering a school's hall. Very rustic, and I had to take a panoramic shot of it.

Purple Flower

I'm unsure of this lovely purple flowers name. But I do like to photograph it! LOL! Great depth of field thanks to large aperture per 45 mm Samsung NX Lens

Road To Nowhere

This is a shot on the centre lane on a farm road behind the Polkadraai Strawberry Farm. I love the way it bends to the left. The vineyards in the background gives this a very "homely"feel for me, being so close to the Stellenbosch Wine Route.

Shifting Focus

The 45mm Samsung NX lens offers awesome Aperture, giving me great depth of field. This was one of my test shots on manual focus, distorting different portions of he image. This is one of my favourites. What do you think?

Gazebo

Gazebo Panoramic

Loved this wooden Gazebo in Nantes Park, Athlone. Shot in Panoramic Mode by hand.

Loadshedding in our country gives us more time to shoot in the dark. This is my take on one of the burning candles at home. Shot in Manual Focus Mode...
