Film photography

Cape Town, the Côte d'Azur and the road in between, shot on 35 mm film. Number plates are blurred.

Cape Town

Camps Bay houses on the hillside above the Atlantic
Palm-lined road in Camps Bay running towards Lion's Head
A cat walking down a garden path towards the camera
Lion's Head behind palms and pines
Coral tree blossoms against a blue sky
Granite boulders and surf on a Cape Town beach
An orange supercar turning through Camps Bay traffic
Swimmers in a tidal pool seen past parked cars
Birds on a telephone pole in hazy light
Small purple wildflowers
A crane lifting a frame above people on a sea wall
A building facade of angled concrete grids against blue sky
A glass apartment block against blue sky
A street at night under a sodium lamp
Sunset haze over a mountain ridge

Côte d'Azur

The Baie des Anges curving along Nice
Palms silhouetted on the Promenade at sunset
The waterfall on Castle Hill in Nice catching the sun
Palms and lamps along a seafront promenade
Boats in Nice's old port below the hills

Europe

A river town with a church tower on a winter afternoon
Sun flaring through bare trees on a cobbled street
A wide shallow river with people on a sandbank
A bare tree in late light
A narrow canal between old buildings
A mountain range above a lake

Light and sky

People watching a red sunset over the sea
Clouds lit pink and gold
A wind-bent tree against a dawn sky
A plane passing over a dark ridge
The moon in a black sky

Still life

A plate of grilled meat and a glass of gin and lime
A bottle and a glass on a balcony rail

Black and white

A Ferris wheel through palms, in black and white
Lion's Head through trees, in black and white
An empty beach and horizon, in black and white

Automotive

Ferrari 812 Superfast head-on, plate blurred
