"This winter has been good to us" is the order of the day in Cape Town. The winter gods have been nothing but generous to us this year. We have had weekends of sunshine all round and entirely freezing days.
To show how good it has been, it allowed me to play honorary model in the streets of Woodstock with Murendi of GentleGiant*. It even allowed me to wear a skirt without stockings in the middle of winter without freezing to death.
It was a good hour or so, filled with dodging traffic, waiting for people to pass in order to get the shot and me shouting "that would make a cool shot, let's go down the street, look over there" and poor Murendi with he's half dying camera battery trying to keep up with my madness. We even had some people stopping to see that the hell we where up to, while some kept reminding me to smile (*side bar please* I know that I really should smile more in pictures and I'm working on it). Eventually it all came together to make these awesome shots.
Woodstock is a pretty cool place, it;s alive with colors and just life. Next time you visit this part of the mother citi make sure you just don't go to the market and then go home, make sure you stay a little longer and take in the street life.
