Port Elizabeth Beachfront Sunrise

This morning when I got to work I got a message from a friend who took his mountain bike out for a change again. He wanted to show off the pic he took with his phone on the beachfront at sunrise this morning and I just had to share it with you.

Last week I got to attend the launch of the new Le Vino Wine and Tapas Bar at the Boardwalk. Le Vino is in the space where Dulce used to be and has a great upstairs area with a balcony. It's on this balcony we sat watching the sun go down over the Boardwalk lake … Continue reading Le Vino balcony view →

My external hard drive crashed a little while ago and with it went all my family and travel photos. It's going to cost me around … Continue reading Dusk at Eersterivier →

Golden morning

In Afrikaans there is a saying, "Die môrestond het goud in die mond" which is the same as "The early bird catches the worm." The Afrikaans one has more relevance to this picture.

Kings Beach sunset

If you are on the beachfront in Humewood one tends to think that east is directly over the bay and west is then behind you (if you are facing the bay). The curve of the beachfront is slightly deceptive with west actually being to the left which means that the sun goes down over the city … Continue reading Kings Beach sunset →
