Top of the Table Mountain

When we arrived at the Table Mountain in Cape Town it was completely covered with clouds. Luckily, it cleared after a while and we had great weather for the rest of the hike. In this picture, you can see the restaurant and one of the nice places to look around.

Dreamy Africa

I captured this while on the way to the Table Mountain in Cape Town. I continue with a little experimentation in post-processing. I tried B&W for this, mainly because this was shot around midday when the light is too harsh. This way there is much more obvious emphasis on the lines and shapes which I like here.

The Fields

This photo reminds me of a wild west in America. However, it is not:). I’ve actually taken this near Lesotho in South Africa.

The Turn

When we walked up to the Table Mountain near Cape Town last year, I made some pictures along the way. Recently I went through them and I found this one:).

The Signal Hill

I took this picture from the top of the Table Mountain in Cape Town. You can see the part of the city and the Signal Hill.

Trees of Table Mountain

Nature in South Africa is a little bit different from what we have here in Europe. There are these interesting trees and grass which together create nice whole. This particular image is from the hike to Table Mountain in Cape Town.

Warm Winter

It’s been almost a year since I visited South Africa. This picture is from the Drakensberg area which I liked very much. There is something special about the sun in Africa which is hard to describe. If you experience a sunset there, it’s very difficult to find a better one. I was fortunate to experience couple of them last year and I hope I’ll experience some more in the future.

Drakensberg At Its Best

Let me take you to the South Africa today. This sunset happened last summer in Drakensberg. Actually it was winter down there. The setting sun on the other side of the sky created this great colors which I want to share with you.

Church in Cape Town

This is a St. George’s Cathedral in the centre of Cape Town. When I visited this church with my friends it was empty and I could capture its beauty. I think HDR processing makes it even better.

St. George's Cathedral, Cape Town

Almost every city I visited had some kind of church or cathedral in it. Cape Town was no exception. This photo is from the St. George’s Cathedral which is in the centre of Cape Town.
