Dawn

Dawn on Robben Island looking towards Cape Town.

(Added to Cream of the Crop as my most viewed photo. Technically second most viewed but the most viewed is because of an external site driving non-Flickrites to it.)

I really like this photo - the light and the mist are beautiful. I'd make this photo my desktop if you had a high-res version.

Nice composition, lighting and scale... I like this photo because it has a time eternal quality.

Striking resemblance to So Shore Great Salt Lake with Antelope Island in the background. Only the color palette in foreground and structure would never survive the GSL enirons.

Cape Town South Africa says:

Hi Paul,

We have a special feature on our blog (http://www.capetown.travel/index.php/blog/) called "Cape Town Flickr Pic of the Day", in which we showcase one image from the group per day. (We've just started this on Jan 1, check it out here: www.capetown.travel/index.php/blog/category/p hotography/

As you will see, we provide the photographer's name and a link to their Flickr profile, as well as a paragraph or two if possible on what they enjoy/love about living in Cape Town or photographing Cape Town.

We'd be honoured if you'd allow us to use one of your images for this feature? I like this one in particular, but we'd be happy to feature another, if you have another favourite?

If you're happy to take part, we'll showcase your picture in the next two weeks or so.

If you'd like to participate, please indicate which picture you'd like us to feature, and write us a paragraph or two telling us about the image, saying what you like about Cape Town/photography in Cape Town/travel, etc?

Please could you email me the image and write-up directly, to media[at]flowsa.com.

I really hope you'll agree and look forward to hearing from you!

Warm regards,
Kate – Cape Town Tourism
