Counting cranes
posted by Kerry-Anne
This reminds me of one of those kiddies' puzzles - how many cranes can you count in the picture? (I got to 17, but I could be wrong.)These cranes are over at the construction site of Green Point Stadium, one of the stadiums that will host several soccer games during the 2010 World Cup. In the middle of February, city spokesperson Pieter Cronje apparently said that a third of the stadium is already complete, and that it's well on its way to being completed on schedule, by 15 December 2009.
I find the presence of the cranes on our skyline really inspiring - to me, they're a symbol of progress and growth.

Very nice. I like how the tree centers the shot.
Definitely worth a vote - well done. Love the photo, full of hope and promise for South Africa.
Nice photograph. I like the cranes. A sign, some say, of progress.
Lovely image and lovely colours in this!
