Liquid gold - no really, it is. I photographed a wine tasting evening at AL63 Restaurant Cafe Bar for the Meinert Wine Estate. They saved the best until last! Below we have some ‘T‘. It’s a noble late harvest dessert wine, which I don’t normally enjoy, but this was delightful with so many notes of flavour. It got a 5 star rating from Platters. Thoroughly enjoyable evening.
I was very entrigued when I came across this video of an ol’ school mate of mine, Rui Esteves, who started the Vida e Caffe coffee franchise. Being a coffee lover myself and especially enjoying the Vida brand, Rui has some very interesting points he’s brought up in this presentation he made at a HeavyChef online media event. Rui has since sold the Vida franchise and is now building the CSG Portugal beer brand.
Taking a greater perspective on life! The Digital Valley team and friends took some time out to traverse the Northern Drakensberg and spend a night in tents at 3000m above sea level. Quite a challenge with the season leading into the winter months but an amazing time with some incredible scenery. You definitely are able to unwind completely at a time such a this and experience the full beauty of God’s creation.
A bridge I cross almost daily but in the Winter of ‘07 it was the end of the day and I was on my way home when I saw the moon rising between the arches. Fortunately I had my camera with me - surprisingly (but no tripod)! So I was super chuffed when I was able to hand-hold the equipment still enough to capture this memorable scene.
This was our early morning sunrise on the first morning of our team Drakensberg hike. What a way to start the trip!
An assignment to capture the architectural detail of this warehouse for the developer. I loved the way the lighting and the textures made this image seem like a 3D render.
