Waiting for the Taxi

Waiting for the taxi

OK. This might be a bit messy, but this is the start of an experiment to put a daily or at least fairly frequent photo on the site, using only mobile devices. So this shot was taken on  my little Olympus Pen E-P5, then wirelessly transferred to my very neat Lenovo tablet, and processed there with Snapseed. Finally (I hope) the shot and the text were input on the mobile WordPress app and uploaded. I took the shot above outside the cafe in Woodstock, Cape Town, where I am typing (laboriously) this text.  The shots in this series will not be as considered as usual, but they will be there more often.

  • Chromatic love

    Taken in the Bo-Kaap district of Cape Town.  The walls are really that colour. In fact I turned down the brightness and saturation for this shot. The area is very well known, but the residents can rightly be a bit prickly about being blankly photographed as though they are in some kind of zoo.  I…
