I just realised I hadn’t posted my South African Alphabet on my blog. So here it is – I’m still selling limited edition (50) art prints at just bigger than A1. If you’d like one, send me an email.

Ice creams for everyone

It’s a bright 22 degrees on the South Peninsula of Cape Town today. The low winter sun skimming the peaks of the mountain across from me is actually so bright in my office that I’m wearing sun block on my right arm.

Ice creams for everyone before the next cold front hits.

Tiltshift

KalkBay2

My brother Patrick and I went up to the Boomslang Caves above Kalk Bay last weekend. The caves are awesome – about 100m of twisty, bat-lined darknness with an exit that you have to bellycrawl out of. On the way down we saw this view of Kalk Bay harbour and thought we’d try some tiltshift photography – which is simply a Photoshop technique to make things look like miniatures. (Unfortunately we only had a dodgy old digital camera with us so the quality wasn’t great, but you get the idea.) For a step by step guide on how to do your own click here.
