This is one of the many pictures that I have from my time in Cape Town, where beachgoing is the semi-official past-time. Muizenberg beach, where is was taken, was a quick train ride to a fun little surf spot. Not long so after I had taken this, I was browsing through a photo book in a used book store on Long Street. I saw the exact photo I have here, besides having been taken 20 years previously on black and white film. The light-post had not been put in yet. It was a good photo, but I can't help but think we saw something very different in the same image.
