Jeffrey`s Bay, a photo from Eastern Cape, West

Photographer's Note

From the west coast of USA and Norway in my previous posts to the coast of South Africa. This is Jeffrey`s Bay. We arrived here from Mthatha where we stayed the night before. Jeffrey`s Bay is a small village located by the Indian Ocean. This picture was taken a morning right outside the guest house we hired here. It was a beautiful beach and I was lucky to get a person with matching clothes to the flowers passing by just in the right moment. The lighthouse in the background to the right.

A secluded wide and long beach, with a plants that not usual to my knowledge, Erling. Yet, I find the black rocks on shore in distinct contrast on the scene.
The two ladies strolling along, gave excellent scale.
My best regards,
Ike

Hello Erling,
What a beautiful (almost) deserted beach!
The sand has a very pretty colour.
An attractive composition and the flowers provide a colourful and beautiful foreground.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Erling
The lighthouse is always nice to see in the photo but the emphasis here on the beach.
The vegetation in the foreground, and people walking on the coast you interesting details and make the contrast in the photo.
