Church and Boy Scout Hall with Table Mountain in the background
This shot is taken with my Canon. I went to this Church many years ago. On the corner of the church there is a hall where I was a boy scout patrol leader in 20th Cape Town Boy Scouts.Cape Town Public Gardens
Those of you who are familiar with the gardens will know that this shot was taken at the fish pond near the restaurant. This shot was taken by my wife with my Canon digital camera.
Gordons Bay in Cape Town South Africa
Debby took this amazing shot of me with a Kodak Easy Share Z885 digital camera - 8.1 mega pixel. It was an awsome day that we had in Gordon's Bay.A beautiful Sunset... How can we not be grateful for each day that we live... We often take so many things for granted... In a busy day how often do we just take a few minutes for ourselves and stand in awe of what is all around us... There are miracles happening each second. This picture must touch your soul when looking at it...
Kelvin Grove in Newlands Cape Town
My wife Debby also took this shot of me with the Kodak digital camera on our brother in-laws birthday at Kelvin Grove. Mention the name, Kelvin Grove, to those who have not yet experienced the many faceted nature of this unique club, and words that may spring to mind are: history, heritage, tradition and excellence.
Feeding the Birds and Squirrels
Deborah loves feeding animals. This shot was taken in The Company's Garden which is one of South Africa's premier tourist attractions in Cape Town - a green jewel in the heart of a vibrant, bustling metropolis that is the remaining half of a fresh produce garden planted in the 1650s by the region's first European settlers. Inside the parkThe public section of the garden has been enjoyed by visitors for the sheer beauty of its flora and the allure of its historic setting since it was proclaimed for public use in 1848. It is abutted by numerous important landmarks, including the lodge house for the slaves who built large parts of the historic city, the present day Houses of Parliament, the Iziko SA Museum and Planetarium, St George's Cathedral (which is the seat of the Anglican church in SA), the National Library of SA, the SA National Gallery, the Great Synagogue and Holocaust Centre and Tuynhuys, which is used by the President on State occasions. Other attractions include:
* The oldest cultivated pear tree in South Africa (circa 1652)
* A rose garden designed and built in 1929
* A well stocked fish pond
* Dellville Wood Memorial Garden, which commemorates the World War 1 battle at Delville Wood in France, in which a predominantly SA force of more than 3 000 soldiers was reduced to 755 survivors by German forces
* An aviary - a great favourite with children
* Restaurant - the Garden Tea Room - a Capetonian favourite!
* Botanically and historically valuable trees
* Local arts and crafts along the avenue
* Grassy lawns and benches
