Photographer’s Note
The Carriage based at the Castle of Good Hope as seen here
offers the experience of exploring Cape Towns CBD and Cape Town’s Garden in style and allows a more sedate way of viewing the historical landmarks amassed in this area.
For something a little special hire a carriage and driver and explore Cape Town at your own pace.
Corporate days with lunch and a carriage ride have opened even local’s eyes to this unique view of Cape Town.
If you’re looking for something a little more romantic, a carriage for two with champagne in the gardens is always well received.
Right I am off to find my carriage as it is a sunny hot day : )
I have purposely not cropped out the sky as it adds some sense of scale to the overall image.
Shutter: 1/1000, F/3.5, ISO100
Have a great weekend where ever you are!

It is so big. Was it used on public transport? Nice picture with good colours and nice POV. The guy just adds to the scale. Well done.

Bonjour Lynette,
L'ancêtre du bus, bonne idée de l'avoir en si bon état, et rare surtout, on beaucoup plus habitué aux petites calèches.
La composition avec un cadrage serré est une bonne idée.
Amicalement
Martine
