People Are Living There

I stole the title from Athol Fugard. I love that title. I loved reading the play, and should read it again. Something to do during the holidays.

I was photographing the stadium again, this time trying to get a lightning strike over it. I failed miserably but enjoyed standing in the rain. The 30 second exposures where never going to capture the ladies on the flat enjoying the cool evening thunderstorm after a sweaty Durban day.

And even though I feel like a bit of a peeping Tom I like this image.

Moses Mabhida Stadium

I don't usually get excited about new buildings. There are exceptions to this rule and the stadium currently under construction in Durban is one. It has created a real positive buzz in the city!

A Beautiful Face

The South African President Jacob Zuma visited the Moses Mabhida stadium in Durban, South Africa which is being built for the 2010 Soccer world cup. He spoke to the workers on site including the man pictured. He has the most inviting face. His smile drew me to him. In fact I think he thought I was a little odd because at one pointI spent more time focussed on him than I did the president.
