I just can't get enough of the lines in the Pearson Conservatory in St George's Park. Great for photography.

Maitlands from the air
Last week's Video Friday post was one by Renaldo Gouws showing off Shark Rock Pier and surrounds. This week I'm sharing his video with drone footage of the Maitlands area. We really are fortunate to have such beautiful coastal areas around Port Elizabeth and it's great seeing it from another angle in Renaldo's videos.
Forgotten Footbridge flowers
Behind the South End Cemetery is an old footbridge over the narrow gauge railway line which most people probably have never seen. It's not really something significant but I know of it because I have a Geocache hidden there. I went to check up on it the other day after the recent fire and snapped … Continue reading Forgotten Footbridge flowers
Garden stroll
A weekend or two ago we went for a photo shoot in St Georges Park. No, I don't mean I went to take photos in St Georges. In February the Damselfly gave me a voucher for a couples shoot with Champayne Creations for Valentines Day and we were in St Georges to have our photos taken. … Continue reading Garden stroll
South End Cemetery in sepia

I spent some time at Splash as part of the Luister FM outside broadcast on Sunday and was quite impressed with the amount of people around. When … Continue reading Splash Festival crowds

Drone footage around Shark Rock Pier
I was very excited when I saw that Renaldo Gouws had uploaded some drone footage on YouTube again. Renaldo may be best known for his political and social comment videos, but his drone videos truly are exceptional. He has upload three which I will be sharing with you on Video Friday over the next three weeks. … Continue reading Drone footage around Shark Rock Pier
The beach at Bluewater Bay
Bluewater Bay Beach stretching away towards the Coega Harbour hidden somewhere in the haze on the horizon. I made a quick stop to snap a picture or two while on my way elsewhere but have to make a plan to return some time soon for a walk along the beach. The beach is great for … Continue reading The beach at Bluewater Bay
