Weekly Photo Challenge: Converge

A strip of tarmac following the contours of the landscape like a serpent, converging in the far distance.

 South Africa’s national flower, the Protea’s pink petals form around the bud converging to the tip.

Named after the Greek god Proteus who could change form. There are many species of Protea.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Descent – Political Spirals

The spiral staircase in the library of the South African Parliament buildings is simply magnificent!

I had the opportunity to visit the South African Parliament buildings in Cape Town last year. One of my favourite spots was the library. It smelt of wood and books and knowledge and history. I loved it!

The spiral staircase tucked away in a  corner was simply one of its best features.
