Travel Theme : Peaceful

Ailsa’s travel theme this week on (www.wheresmybackpack.com) is peaceful. Undoubtedly open to numerous interpretations, so its going to be interesting to see the responses. I live in the City, and my interpretation of peaceful, when it concerns a place, is more than likely to be in the countryside, or along the coast, perhaps in the mountains. I wonder if someone from the countryside, or from along the coast, or from within the mountains, would list the city as their preferred peaceful place..:-), Well, I guess that too is just another one of those interpretations.

52 Photos Project : Crimson

This post is almost too late for this weeks Crimson prompt on Bella’s 52 Photos Project (www.52photosproject.com), but I guess on the other hand, its never too late . Some “crimson” images from a recent trip to Scandinavia.

Weekly Photo Challenge : Fleeting

A dramatic sky in Northern Norway presented a fleeting moment when the clouds momentarily opened up and shaft of light beamed down onto the river. Fortunate enough to be driving past at the time, I took a moment to stop and shoot a few images. Two of them are my response to the “fleeting” prompt on the Weekly Photo Challenge..

Travel theme : Costume

Infecting the City is an annual festival of arts and dance in Cape Town, that I’ve postd about previously. Bringing a variety of performances to Public spaces in the inner city, providing an opportunity for city dwellers and workers to experience the almost impromptu performances during the course of their daily activities. Integrated into the buzz of the business day, and into the nightlife of the city, performers are almost only deperated from the general public by the “costumes” that they wear. Costumes is the prompt on Ailsas Travel theme on {www.wheresmytravelbackpack.com} this week, so I’m posting some images of the festival in response to the prompt…

52 Photos Project : Uncommon shapes

Bella’s prompt on this weeks 52 Photos Project (www.52photosproject.com) is uncommon shapes. Perhaps, not that uncommon, my post is about triangles, but I suppose slightly unconventional triangles. These are made of concrete, and are sort of a pyramid comprising a whole bunch of triangles, some two dimensional, others three dimensional, it depends how you look at them..:-). I guess this description will make more sense once you look at the images..:-). Nowadays there are many different versions of these concrete blocks, used to form an edge to coastal environments, like harbours, breakwaters etc. Here are some of my uncommon shapes, shot at Cape Town Harbour….

Weekly Photo Challenge : The Sign says

“The sign says” is the prompt on the weekly photo challenge this week. Interesting how sometimes despite the sign being in a foreign language, one that you don’t understand, the message still seems to get across…here are some images of signs that I shot on a recent visit to Northern Sweden…

Weekly Photo Challenge : In the background

Is it in the Background, Foreground, Reflected?? Depends how you look at it?  I suppose all three in some of these images of Observatory in Cape Town, a wonderfully vibey colourful area, perfect for images to respond to the “in the background” prompt on the weekly photo challenge this week..
