Hey, what are you looking at?

It's relatively easy to spot the Durbanville area from the air when approaching Cape Town International Airport from a westerly direction. The vineyards and rolling hills can be seen for many miles and are undoubtedly the greatest attraction of the area.

It must be wonderfully relaxing to take a leisurely stroll through the vines - although, by the way half of this poor fellow's shirt is pulled out and considering his flushed cheeks, I'd bet that his "best friend" took him for rather a brisk walk.

Tidy or not, the blue shirt stands out well against the greenery and the white buildings in the background.

This man happens to be a colleague of mine...

When I discovered the photo (completely by accident) he was taken by suprise as he has no idea that the photo was taken of him)

Who was the photographer? I am very interested to know!

he he - I wasn't sure if he saw me taking the photo - he seemed to be looking over in our direction.

I hope that he wasn't offended by the post - but you have to admit, he and his dog do make for a good photo. :)

Thanks for letting me know.

I think he is a bit spooked out though! Its just a bit freaky how easy pictures of yourself gets out there!

Yes, they do make a good photo.

Isaac, if your friend would like a copy of the photo, you can just email us on one of the addresses at the top of the page, and we'll happily send a hi-res version along. This is one of my favourite shots actually, so you can tell him that he and his dog make a super photo! :)

Isaac, if your colleague feels weird about it I guess I could blur his face out - although I feel it would ruin the photo... so I'm hoping he's come to terms with his fame. ;)

Yeah, in the past newspapers and TV news were of the only places that the public would find themselves apear without their knowledge. In the digital world where almost everyone has a digital camera and access to creating websites, the odds of appearing somewhere on a website is so much greater.
