When I realised that 80% of my photography took place on a beach or beside the ocean, I made a note to myself to shoot other objects and locations. There are many beautiful forces of nature other than the ocean that constantly change, have a surreal mood-altering ability and draw you ever closer, right?
Well my intentions were good, but only until I spent part of the afternoon on a beach for WORK. Yes, I was paid to be on a beach. Interviewing an awesome kite-surfer who initiated a beach cleanup to save the beach and environment, no less. Had I brought a wetsuit along and didn't need to return to the office thereafter, I would've SUP'ed ( Stand up paddle board) along with the videographer and featured inspirational Capetonian.
So while the shooting continues in the waves( sadly there was no wind for kite-surfing). I merrily watched on, supervised and shot more pics...of the beach.
This is why I was there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kteEgqw5mI0

- Surfing Chilly Waves In Cape Town's Winter
If you must know, I'm very much a pleasant-conditions surfer. Extremely fussy about times I do choose to surf, I decide mostly based on the outdoor temperature, wave conditions and whether the sun will be there post-surf to heat my bones. ...
- The 'hoek' Is On Fire
I had been to Noordhoek beach once upon a time. In the heat of the day, with friends we jumped in the sand and pretended that we might chance getting our toes numbed in the frozen ocean. But never before had I turned the corner and seen such...

Malvarrosa Beach at sunset Yesterday evening I had a magic moment, just me and the sunset... After the exams I thought of going for a relaxing walk on the beach. Little did I know there was a strike and that I would have to wait for the metro...
