The traffic was insane this evening and I didn’t go my normal route home; AND I knew I was going to be too late to walk the dogs; AND the sun looked amazing, AND the sky was all murky… all those factors convinced me to take a small detour up Northcliff Hill before the sun set.
I have been wanting to get up there for months, to see if it was still gated, and whether I’d be able to do a shoot there.
I wasn’t disappointed… it’s stunning up there… although I didn’t feel safe enough wandering about on my own when the sun really got low… and in fact I missed the most amazing sunset because of my fear. Anyhoo, I got some amazing photos anyway… and I’m going to go back… with someone in tow though.

Come past tomorrow and get my cell no. I’ll be your bodyguard on shoots

Oh Jenty, they are all beautiful, but that second one is sure poetry.
Breathtaking photographs, well done! And well done on MAKING the time to take them, in your very hectic life. We could all learn from that…
Stunning views! I thought Joburg was flat!
Oh I know this hill. Beautiful photo’s.
oh my word! what an amazing place. I never see places at that time of day…I’m always home.
What amazing pictures Jeanette!!
Oh wow !! That second photo is stunning with the sun cupped like that … and the colours !
These are lovely Jeanette. That first shot of the tower is my fav
Lovely pics. Have some wonderful memories of that place. If you need a a safe and open vantage point for both the city and Sandton, let me know. World’s View has some great options. Would love to see what you can do with it at night and dawn/dusk.
I really like the second pic of the path with the sun. The sunsets up there are always a little better with the smoggyness around.
Thats just around the corner from me… lovely!
Just gorgeous!!!! That sunset pic is my favourite of yours so far I think
