Green Point lighthouse, Cape Town

Close to the construction of the new stadium - it should be ready for the soccer World Cup in 2010 - but miles from the clatter of building work, the lighthouse and it's bright red and white paint is a real camera magnet.

The weather is grim; low scudding clouds, drizzle and it's chilly to boot. Not really photography weather.
