This is the statue of poet John Betjeman by Martin Jennings. Betjeman had been the driving force behind efforts to save the site when it was threatened by development plans during the 1960's and the sculpture stands as a tribute from London and Continental Railways to the man who made their redevelopment of the station possible.

ISO 640  1/250   F2.8 Isn't it amazing what musical talents are out there? Just last week, we photographed Me'sha Bryan's band and were blown away!  Fantastic original songs performed at a brilliant live venue ( Luminaire)  and we had great fun capturing the band with Me'sha (Vocals), Alan Mian (Bass), David Birnie (Electric Guitar) & Darren Ashford (Drums).  We wish them all the best for a bright future!

Kassiesbaai

We had the pleasure of discovering the delights of Kassiesbaai on a recent trip to Arniston in South Africa.  Kassiesbaai is a working fishing village where we found wonderfully warm smiles and generous people.  Lillian, one of the local residents, treated us to an evening of beautifully cooked freshly caught fish with a candle lit dinner in one of the original houses (like the one pictured above).  The village dates back approximately 200 years and has been declared a national monument.  It is located on the coast of the Indian Ocean in the town of Arniston, named after the Britsh troopship that was wrecked off the Agulhas reef in 1815, with the tragic loss of 372 lives.  Arniston is approximately 190km from Cape Town.
