Beachfront Block

Beachfront Block

This is one of the new apartment buildings along the beachfront in Strand. The statue in front is a slightly larger than life size image of a naked man. When it was erected it caused an outcry from the more conservative elements of the community.

Surf Phosphorescence in False Bay

Blue

Almost two weeks ago Michelle sent me a link to this article about phosphorescence in the waters of False Bay that was apparently related to the red tide we have had here for some weeks. She hoped that I would get some photographs of it and I meant to but things have been hectic and it was last evening before I got the chance to go out and take some photos of the setting sun and surf. The red tide seems to be almost gone so I had not expected to see any phosphorescence and was surprised when I started seeing the greenish blue glow in the surf as darkness fell. Sadly I had some difficulty focussing in the dark so this is one of the best shots I got. Still the slight blur adds some mood to the scene.

See other shots I took of the phenomenon.

I used a ring flash to get this shot in my backyard after some rain.
