Oooh I love the mall shot Jeanette..it has such ambience ~ it’s probably one of my all time favourites. The grass dunes and kite surfer pics are also very cool. I think you can at least get 2 of your 3 photo’s for camera club in Jan out of this lot. They are stunning!
Wow! That’s really stunning…

On Thursday evening (in Hermanus) we went walked to the lagoon along the beach. It was so windy, but that was such a relief, because the sun had been a killer that day. I had such fun using my widest angle lens that I have… OK… it is the kit lens, so these photos were taken at 18mm. I could really have done with a 10-20mm lens this week! I absolutely LOVE how the wider angle lens enhances the blue-ness of the sky.

Windswept beach – I tried to capture the lines of sand being blown by the wind on the beach, but it hasn’t really come out.

YTSLs last blog post..Wide (This week’s Photo Hunt theme)
I flew back from Hermanus in the Western Cape this afternoon (I went there for my Grandpa’s memorial service). On the first evening, we went for a walk on the cliff paths, and my aunt pointed out these dragons heads in the rocks (she says they look like lions, but I think they’re dragons). Aren’t they stunning?! I’d never noticed them before, and we’ve been there quite a few times… but I must say that you can only see them from a certain angle, and you have to go off the path to actually notice them.
I’ve got so many photos to share with you from the trip, and hopefully some of them will be good enough for the next camera club meet.

gorgeous!
I agree, they definitely resemble dragon heads more than lion heads. Very nice!
Welcome back Jeanette
Wow I love that first one!!!

Anchis last blog post..Skywatch Friday

Coreys last blog post..Photo Hunters~Wide
Those dragon heads are awesome! I love the clouds behind as if they’re breathing smoke
Momisodess last blog post..Crouching Rodent, Hidden Santa
Great shots. That does look like a dragon head in the first shot. My sympathy to you and you family for your loss.
2sweetnsaxys last blog post..Sky Watch #23
Those rock dragons are GREAT! I especially like how you got the clouds behind them. It really does have the feeling of smoke.
I’m sorry about your grandfather. I jumped over to the tribute about him … he certainly does look like a very special man. May the Lord give you and your family comfort as you grieve.
