BAD WEATHER AT BUFFALO BAY

Went out to Buffalo Bay on Sunday - the wind was howling and it was pretty cold. I couldn't take any long exposure shots as the wind was too string and was moving my tripod. Tried a couple of ICM exposures and really liked the first image posted below.
All the images were shot with my Olympus EM-5 with the 12-40 Pro lens.

Also wanted to add this image which  I shot at Plettenberg Bay a few weeks ago.

BUFFALO BAY SUNSET

About 2 weeks ago, I went to a photographic outing arranged by Ian Fleming, a photographer friend from Knysna. It was very well attended with over 30 fellow landscape enthusiasts gathering at the "wild side" at Buffalo Bay. At first the pending sunset didn't look as if it was going to be too great, but the later it got, the better it got!

I didn't try any Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) shots as the rocks in the foreground make for (to me) rather unpleasant dark brown/black shapes. But I did manage to capture some long-exposure seascapes with my Olympus EM5 and the 12-40 lens. Hope you enjoy.

SAUNDERS ROCKS - CAPE TOWN

Went down to Cape Town last month to attend a very close friend's 70th birthday celebrations. While there, I made a point of going to Saunders Rocks at the end of Sea Point as it's a great spot to shoot seascapes. The weather god's were definitely friendly towards me, responding with a truly spectacular sunset. Hope you enjoy the pics.

WAVES ON SWARTVLEI BEACH

Was down on Swartvlei beach at sunrise a few weeks ago and captured these 2 images of the waves which I really like...

HAVING FUN WITH FLOWERS

Creating seascape images is so much dependent on the weather and the light, that sometimes days or weeks go by without there being an opportunity to try to create something fresh. Faced with "perfect" weather - sunny and bright a few weeks ago, I decided to try some close-up flower photography. The images below were all shot at Pine Lake Marina on Swartvlei. Hope you enjoy....

FOAM AND ROCKS ON GOUKAMMA BEACH

Last Saturday evening, we went down to Goukamma Beach - the one behind the Lake Pleasant Hotel just outside Sedgefield - and were confronted with this huge amount of foam on the beach. This sometimes occurs after big storms, but during the past week the weather was mild, so no idea what the cause of this is. Two days later, it was still there.

SUNSET AT BRENTON-ON-SEA

A fellow-photographer friend of mine was up from Cape Town for a few days, so on Friday evening we decided to go down to the beach to see what was happening...
