While the dry-dock of the V&A Waterfront, Cape Town, was filling up these workers were taken off the ships. I think the crane operator saw me and decided to play a joke by suddenly lowering the platform until it just touched the water. The different reactions of the men, the colour of the newly painted boats and the reflection in the water make this one of my own personal all time favourites. (‘Splash and dash’ is a term from ballooning where they let the hot air out while over water and when the basket touch – the splash – the loss off weight make the balloon rise again – the dash.)

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!

Sunset over Cape Town

Avril says; “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.”
