Touring Cape Town
« on: October 23, 2015, 20:49:00 »
Today we saw a bit of the Cape Town City Centre- and MUCH more history than I could ever dream of. Not much chance for photos
Cape Town and Table Mountain. Every day we have about 1 million people in the city

Now that's a beautiful sight - Table Mountain without any clouds covering it!

Must be shot from the southeast of Kaapstad, the image is unfortunately a wee bit too small to enjoy more details,
but you are developing new skills, good luck  :) :)

FOns you are right - far too many info in this stitched image  - cant say I like how it compressed at all.
It was taken form Signal Hill - which is north west of Tafelberg

Nice overview!
I've been 2 times in Cape Town but did not see the town from this side.
If I dig into my pictures I will find an overview from SW side or from the Table Mountain. :)
