In and around Cape Town, there’s always beauty and wonder awaiting the eager perspective. Although the rain took centre stage this week, we were still spoilt for choice with other visual wonders. Take a look at Cape Town through the lens –this week’s fave photos.
Nightfall at the Waterfront |@_brian_i_am
The V&A Waterfront is certainly far from camera-shy, but its beauty captured amongst our stormy skies is certainly a vision.
Into the Forest | @thecapetownlocal
Newlands Forest is easily one of the most gorgeous adventures in Cape Town. With options to trail to the base of the ravine or Skeleton Gorge, your waterfall chasing dreams are just around the corner.
Lighthouse Against the Blue | @b6oy
The Cape Point Light House or the “Point” was once feared as a place marking terrible storms by night. Even today, captured against a brilliant blue canvas, the “Point” looks nothing short of a beacon of hope, and epic views.
Midnight Thunderstorm | @the_wandering_russian
Although the DHL Stadium lit up for other reasons this week thanks to the Stormer’s thrilling match against the Bulls, lightning over the stadium’s glow is probably the only thing to take viewers’ gaze from the field.
DHL Stadium Aglow with Fans | @coolcapetravel
You didn’t even need to be there to be there, to be there, because the Stormer’s going toe-to-toe against the Bulls, was electric and could be felt all over the city, and the photo’s prove it.
Cotton Candy Skies at the Prom | @nasreenroberts
The best part about Sea Point’s version of the yellow brick road (the Promenade) is that the colours gracing this walkway are always changing. If you like your sun shows sweet, this is one place to feed your vision.
Peace Out, Youth Day | @alexcpt
16 June had Capetonians exploring, and the peaceful energy simply couldn’t be ignored, from mountain tops to the city’s hum.
Nestled Beneath the Stars | @cabin_fever_cpt
Le Domaine Eco Nature Reserve’s Hide Montagu looks breathtaking beneath the stars, and we could gladly star gaze here for hours on end.
Autumn is Leaving | @mom_exploring
Vrede en Lust Estate’s morning Autumn leaves are the burst of colour we all need before preparing for winter’s breath.
The Sky Roars Too | @thecapetownlocal
The city already roars on a good day, but when the sky joins in on the performance, we can’t help but feel our souls spark with love for our home.
Cederberg Crevices | @madeye_photo
The Cederberg Mountains can easily be confused for a storybook setting, filled with fantastic wonders. From the snow that sometimes settles on the peaks, to rock climbing experiences that will rock any daredevil, it’s certainly a mountain lover’s haven.
