sunset over one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. catherine very kindly put this beautifully written colab together for the image of llandudno:: “Today I lost my heart / somewhere between / the stillness in the air / and the pull of the tide Today I surrendered / to the invitation that is you / with all your cobwebs / and your cutting words Today I am pounded / with every breaking wave / every kick to my hope / with your careless intention Today I am here / searching the horizon / to touch the essence / of you in this perfection today….” awesome!! you can view more of catherine’s written work here: “cathrinedp”:http://www.redbubble.com/people/cathrinedp
The 12 Apostles Mountains- cape Town in South Africa / an amazing place with some huge rocks in the sea.
Autumn afternoons in the Western Cape are often magical. This was Friday afternoon – just got home from work, grabbed my gear and headed to this Camps Bay tidal pool, a place I frequently photograph. What a perfect way to kick off the weekend!

Oils on canvas. Cape Town, the city of my birth. Dusk falling and the lights are coming on under the shadow of the great mountain where I was born. When the ‘table cloth’ forms over the mountain, Van Hunks and the old devil are smoking their pipes like crazy in a never ending competition and the cloth of cloud falls over the table like a waterfall. (old legend). The sky is clear over the mountain here today and the sea becomes black and purple as the light shifts. The view is from Blauwberg Strand. Original oil painting is 30×40 inches.

False Bay in Fish Hoek on the Eastern coast of the peninsula of the Western Cape, near Cape Town, South Africa. I’ve deliberately been excluding man-made objects from the majority of my landscapes. I’ve been contemplating a new theme for my pictures… for now I’ll start including more man-made structures in my sea- and landscapes. I’m also enjoying DCE tools HDR of late. I appreciate any honest crit, please dont hesitate to point out what you dont like.
This man was a street performer in Cape Town and was fantastic as can be seen from his animated expression. / My Camera is a Nikon D300, I used a 80-200 mm Nikon 2.8 lens, shutter speed was 1/640s @ISO400.
Enjoying some late afternoon light. / Noordhoek and Kommetjie is on the Western side of the Cape peninsula, in the Western Cape province of South Africa.
Shanty Town in Cape Town, South Africa A typical homestead in a shanty town. Being given the opportunity to see how the people of this town live was such an incredible experience. They are humble, real, satisfied, good natured, and above all else, they are happy with what they have. They do not ask for more, they live for the moment, for each other and have a sense of peace about them that I have not encountered with anyone in the western world before. There is no danger here, despite being warned about going into a place like this, we were only greeted with acceptance. / It would be so easy for them to dislike us for living better lives, invading their spaces, treating them as an attraction. All we were faced with were smiles and a want to talk to and learn from us. / Truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Taken from inside a bus, traveling at around 15km/h, camera lens pressing up against the glass, sun behind me, thankfully.
