Bus-truck



This half bus half truck is in the railway transport museum in George. Interesting concept. It must have worked in days gone by - when there were less people, longer distances, and a need for a transport service along the bus route.

What a car should be. Simple strong, reliable.

19950Studebaker Champion



This is the grill of a 1950 Studebaker Champion. It must have made a statement back in the 1950's - given the boxy look that was more or less standard at the time. I wonder if it was at all inspired by jet engines that were then still fairly new and at the edge of engineering achievement.

Perimeter Fence



A veterinary practice in Sedgefield, South Cape, has a perimeter wall made up of concrete animals painted with various patterns. This one is the most interesting.

Church Window



This window was photographed in ST George's Church in Knysna. Though a pretty picture on its own, I found the inclusion of both old and new interesting. The people in the left hand panel are dressed in period clothing while those in the right hand panel are dressed in more modern cloths. There is however one person dressed in modern cloths in the left hand panel as well.
