Fun Photo Friday — Cape Town, South Africa Favorites 1


Look carefully — A lot of people didn’t see it

The photo above is a bit of an optical illusion, especially when viewing it in person rather than in a photograph. Many in our tour had trouble making out the subject. Initially it looks like a map of South Africa with something overlayed. But after some coaching, squinting, employing peripheral vision, and other tricks, the image of Nelson Mandela becomes apparent. Welcome to today’s first of several Fun Photo Fridays of Cape Town favorites:

I decided to take my previous advice and do today’s Fun Photo Friday in color-filtered Black & White. Let me know what you think. Meanwhile, today’s entry means we leave behind Egypt and head to our next photo destination on this months-long journey from earlier this year.
