a far away place - extra image
the world cup started today so i tried to find a suitable football shot from my archives. despite having posted a fair few soccer shots i couldn't find any so i decided to look back even further at south african photos i took two and a half years ago when i was over on holiday. i was watching the coverage tonight on bbc and they had a revolving studio in cape town that showed a panorama including table mountain, the new stadium and robben island - all drenched in evening, african sun. damn it makes me wish i didn't get pneumonia when i was driving to cape town and have to turn back via the plettenburg bay hospital.
the original didn't have a great deal standing out in it, so i decided to give it a bit of texture as well as boosting the colours and contrast. here be the original
