A frozen moment.
And it was just like this when I drive by again 1 hour later.

Thank you Shereen

Blast from the past

I walked into my Perspex Manufacturer - Millenium Plastics - today and laughed out loud.  They are moving at the end of the month and are clearing out all sorts of bits that they have been hoarding for way to long, including some perspex bangles I made about 10 years ago... sexy.  ha ha.  This one and the black with pink stripe were two of favourites. 

FYI:  Millenium Plastics are probably my favourite supplier in Cape Town and can do just about anything for you with perspex - cutting, shaping, lazer cutting, engraving and the list goes on.  Currently in the Woodstock Industrial Centre but moving into Salt River at the end of the month. 

Got a bit into the contrast too much maybe?

The Old Adderley Street Pier (long before the harbour)

Found some lovely old photos of people diving off the end of it.

Raymondo

Raymondo looked a little different to the other elephants
He also acted a little different
And he read Dickens
Obsessively
He was weird basically
But that didn't phase him
Because he was Happy and Loved

A bit of wall and shelf space

Afrikaburn

Wowee is all I can say on this one.  What a great festival.  What a great time.  What a very special place the Tankwa Karoo is.

 

yes

and the owls get to be on a lomo camera too

Finally out of my head ... my perspex bowls meet wire

got the drill out and got going on these
my love affair with perspex continues
and they swivel a little as the base is not flattened - love that
salad looks incredible in the orange - pics to come

Quick dissolving sugar - who knew?

On the wall

Flotsam - worn down by the sea

I have no idea what this piece of wood was but the layers have been beautifully worn and bleached by the sea and the sun.
