A close up of the West side of the Soccer World Cup 2010 Green Point Stadium

I found the stadium walking down the hill (Signal Hill) Of the 3 shots I took I liked this one the best because of the wave crashing on the rocks.

Click photo to enlarge
At this point where I took the closeup from...I am standing just above Three Ancher Bay and Glengariff Road. Just as well I don't suffer from acrophobia :) it was kind of steep as you can see..

If you come to Cape Town then you should drive up Signal Hill road, right till the end, park and walk around.

From Signal Hill, which separates the suburbs of Green Point and Sea Point from the City Bowl, you have an incredible view over Table Mountain, the Twelve Apostles, Lion's Head, the city, the harbor and Table Bay, Robben Island and far beyond . Viewing the sunsets from the top is also awesome and quite popular with tourists and Capetonians alike
Walking back ...this is shot is from above Signal Hill road on the very top of Signal Hill

Green Point Soccer Stadium July 2009 As seen from the new Golf course

Several people mentioned the starry lights in my night shots .... I like to explain that I am not using a filter or a computer generated program or a sock :) its just thesetting I dont know how to capture a nightshot any different then I do now, its the only way I know how to keep the details and its my camera more or less who dictates whats right and whats not

The last shots from the Golf Course.. Btw These trees were newly planted I have seen the lorries and tractors ferrying them around

When you click the photo you will see there is a whole nursery of trees waiting to be planted
I have spend half the afternoon on top of Signal Hill today shooting you will see tomorrow
It was cold and now and then even some drizzle yet I felt so happy walking there
My God what a gorgeous city this is ! You know..its funny how many people smile at you when you are happy :)
