At the Sea

We were for a week at the sea - visiting our daughter & son-in-law in Port Elizabeth.





During a walk along the coast in the Cape Recife Nature Reserve, we saw this Kelp gull carrying a fish. However instead of gobbling it down the gull seemed to have more fun playing with the fish.




Together with friends who also live in PE, the 6 of us went on an early morning hike along Sacramento Bay & watched the sun rising along the coast.




Although I mostly photograph birds & animals, I nonetheless "aim" my lens at anything with visual appeal.





My original goal was to photograph the Cape bulbul sitting "centre-stage", but then I realised what an interesting "frame" the dead tree stumps created.




We discovered this interesting (heart-shaped?) sea-"organism" lying on the beach.





In contrast to my "dependency" to photograph what I find in nature (= on terra firma), our son-in-law takes the most amazing photos whilst scuba-diving in the sea around PE - of which this pretty squid curled around seaweed is just one example of "another world" under the water.
