There are few places in this world more rejuvenating than sitting on the beach staring at the sea. The waves flow you into a hypnotic trance as you quietly sit and stare into the blue horizon.
A sea holiday is always magical. The excitement of running barefoot onto the sand splashing into the shallow waves is freedom.
Cape Town
If you live in a city, the horizon has a different meaning. For example, in Cape Town, you can live in the city and experience the sunset horizon from the promenade. The sun hangs in the sky as the colours grow more intense.
The ocean is a special place with unique creatures. We are very dependant on the sea for oxygen and so much more.
During my years of living on the west coast, I have been privileged to experience many seafood dishes. There are edible plants on the west coast dunes, and the day’s catch is mouth-watering fresh fish.
On the east coast, the warm water fish is just as tasty. It is impossible to choose between the east coast and west coast fish. The ocean delivers.
Photography by the ocean.
For a photographer, the beach and the ocean are poetic romance filled with light play and beauty. I photographed many of my favourite photos with models on the beach at sunrise, midday or warm sunsets. Wind still and windy, cold or warm, the beach is a place of calm and beauty.

A romantic love affair with the ocean in South Africa, enjoying fresh fish from the east coast to the west coast.
