Photographs to ignite the spirit

South Africa
Cape Town
South Africa's Mother City - was the second station of my life's path. It was an unexpected turn. My time in this exotic land was highlighted by the dynamic life of being a cultural promoter, by the freedom of an apprentice street photographer and by the bliss of living high in the mountains, facing planet's endless south sea.
Old Biscuit Mill Market
Prior to its redevelopment into today’s dynamic and creative hub, the Old Biscuit Mill functioned as an actual biscuit mill for the Pyott’s biscuit company. John Pyott opened the factory in the early 1900s and it remained in operation until 1946.
Simon's Town
Simon's Town, a small village established by 1680 in the shores of False Bay, is the home of South Africa's largest naval base. Walking through the streets of this place feels like a real time travel.
Hout Bay Fish Market
Located at Hout Bay Mariner's Wharf, this extense fish market is the place to buy and eat fresh seafood, while appreciating seals swimming smoothly.
