Bruges is one of my favourite places in Belgium. I was fortunate to visit this old town last month after many years and as always, I brought my camera with me.

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.

One of the evenings we spent in Cape Town was filled with rain and wind. I wanted to see the coast so we walked to the end of the V&A Waterfront where I took this picture. I played with it a little bit to enhance the stormy mood that was already there.

The first night in Cape Town didn’t go as good as expected. The rain and clouds prevented us from seeing the much of the landscape. Nevertheless we went out to see the coast and on the way we stumbled upon the football stadium where the World Cup took place in 2010. The clouds actually helped this photo as they formed this interesting shape…

A while after we left the Table Mountain this revealed itself in front of us.

The first evening in Cape Town was quite impressive, at least if I’m talking about the sky and sunset. The streets were quite calm with not many cars. You can see the Table Mountain on the left and the Signal Hill on the right.

The second evening we spent in Cape Town was quite dull and rainy. Nevertheless, we headed towards the sea front to take some pictures of the ocean. On the way back, we went though this interesting passage.

Daily photo

The trip to the Table Mountain in Cape Town ended by the lower station of the cable car where we watched the sun go down. This is one of the pictures I made:).

It was cloudy and raining sometimes the first day we were in Cape Town. We went to the docks that day in the evening. When it was raining quite hard I took this picture (I was standing under some bridge, fortunately:)).

We spent two whole days in Cape Town. The first day was not very warm or sunny, it rained almost the entire day. I wanted to see the harbor so we went there in the evening. This is one of the places that we’ve seen that night:).
