This weekend...

I spent a little time with friends in Khayelitsha. I took one of the best photos of my amateur career, but it was of a child in care, so for confidentiality reasons I can't share it with you. Still, I was also pretty chuffed with the one I took of some fruit and veg sellers round the corner, so here it is.

Our national flower, 

Spring time in Cape Town 

Guinea fowl 

Birds of Paradise. 

I'm not sure the ady called 'Gay' who own's this place thought the name through! 

some photos...

These are some of the last to come from my little old Pentax. My lovely mummy will arrive in three weeks, along with my lovely new Canon S2 IS digital camera.

Juice time...

Some bottles of pop at the children's centre. Stay tuned for more.
