qbnscholar replied to your panorama: Cape View Clifton A serene and elegant boutique…

Great picture and blurb. DId you finally do anything with that picture you asked for suggestions about what to do with it? Just curious. Okay, nosey…

Hey F, thanks for the comments. Its an amazing place : http://www.capeviewclifton.co.za/ hmm, hotel, I photographed it early in the morning, looking away from the hotel, I decided 40lb of semtex was not the way to go!

Pocket Power the Retired Champion

Pocket Power was an absolute phenomenon in South Africa, winning most of the best races in the country.
He retired as a race horse and began a relaxed life under the guidance of Belinda.
She jumps him and events him and he is as amazing and special a retired racehorse as he was a superstar racehorse

Pocket Power a legend.

Cape View Clifton


A serene and elegant boutique hotel in Clifton, Cape Town with the most amazing views and feel. 

Every time I shoot this place I fee peaceful and relaxed, even after a long day.  
This shot was about 30mins before the cold front closed the sun from the sea and the magic was lost.

London Eye late afternoon

Minimalistic simplicity 

Camembert and plum sauce 

One of the challenges of a photographer - please make this look good…

Any ideas?
