Lighthouses in South Africa
Cape Agulhas
The Cape Agulhas lighthouse is situated at the southern most tip of Africa, and celebrated its 150th birthday over three years ago.
Cape Columbine
Cape Columbine is approximately 2 and 1/2 hours drive from Cape Town situated on the west coast, about 3 km from the quaint fishing village of Paternoster.
Cape Hangklip

Cape Hermes Port St Johns
Situated in Port St Johns, which is a small coastal town and known as the jewel of the Wild coast the Cape Hermes lighthouse was built using granite rocks quarried from nearby. The Cape Hermes Lighthouse, named after the HMS Hermes that surveyed the Pondoland coastal waters, warns passing ships of the rugged rock alcoves that line this bay of danger on the East Coast of South Africa. This Indian Ocean stretch is strewn with the remains of jewel carrying treasure ships sunk in the contours of the 'Jewel of the Wild Coast' namely Port St Johns. These waters are protected by a small stone lighthouse built in 1903, which shines one flash every three seconds, and is visible from 13 nautical miles. Situated in Port St Johns, a small coastal town, the Cape Hermes lighthouse was built using granite rocks quarried from nearby. The lighthouse is octagonal in shape, and acquired its name after the ship, HMS Hermes that undertook national surveys of the Pondoland coastal waters. It was constructed under the direction of H. C. Cooper.
Cape Point
No, this is not the most Southern tip of Africa! A lot of people think it is. The light house you see here was the second light house, built 286 feet below the first which was erected on an iron tower.

Green Point Clansthal, Amanzimtoti district
Green Point lighthouse should not be confused with the other Green Point lighthouse, also often known as Mouille Point lighthouse, in Cape Town.

The wet season in Central Kalahari, Botswana
The wet season in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve runs from November to March. This area of Botswana is typically known to be quite harsh and fairly arid in it's peak season, however the heavy summer rains transform this region into a beautifully luscious landscape.
Some consider the 'green season' to be the best time to visit this part of Botswana, as game viewing can be particularly rewarding at this time of year. A great spot to focus on during this period is Deception Valley - remnants of an ancient river, that hasn't flowed for thousands of years. During the summer months the pans fill with water, attracting various animals in significant numbers.
Visitors can expect to encounter large herds of springbok, gemsbok, wildebeest, hartebeest, eland and plenty of giraffes. A decent number of ostriches also make an appearance during this season. Many species of antelope and other herbivores are typically in their breeding season, which allows for excellent sightings of newborn wildlife.
The young new additions to the herds tend to attract the predators in the region, and guests should be on the lookout for the famous black-maned lions, caracals, African wild dogs, brown and spotted hyenas and even the occasional cheetah.
Birding enthusiasts will certainly not be disappointed either, as the area is flush with an abundance of migratory birds. Although this may be one of the lesser known regions of Botswana, safari-goers and can be sure of thrilling predator-prey encounters and stunning photo opportunities.
Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania, in the Green Season
To visit Ngorongoro Crater in January is to witness the great miracle of new life. January is calving season and is also a delightful gap in between the rainy seasons this region experiences.
The photography opportunities are out of this world with green landscapes, stellar lighting and fewer crowds. The wobbly legs of newborn calves trying to stand up for the first time are quite the spectacle.
The brutality of nature dictates that predators follow when it is calving season. They are drawn from near and far to take advantage of the easy prey. The birds also make for epic sightings since many are migratory. Your camera will not rest during this extraordinary safari at such an opportune season.
Franke's Tower - a monument in Omaruru, Namibia. Erich Victor Carl August Franke (21.07.1865-07.08.1936) - German military officer and last commander of Schutztruppe in German South-West Africa. Served in a number of locations, including Ovamboland and Kaokoveld.
He was stationed at Outjo from 1899 until 1910 and is remembered in particular for his involvement in the early phases of the Herero Uprising of 1904. He was dubbed the 'Hero of Omaruru' after leading his troops in battle to victory over the numerically superior Herero forces

Магазин-галерея африканских сувениров Тиколоше в городке Омаруру, Намибия.
Омаруру - населенный пункт в центральной Намибии.
В 1980-х годах на ферме в центральной части Намибии немец Пол Гольдбах познакомился с Пауло Кашингой, искусным резчиком по дереву из региона Каванго (северная Намибия). Пол впервые столкнулся с резьбой из корней деревьев в Южной Америке, но когда он увидел, как Кэшинга вырезает традиционную фигурку антилопы спрингбок из ствола дерева, он был настолько впечатлен, что решил опробовать с ним бизнес-идею.
В свободное время Пол управлял стартапом, в то время как Пауло Кашинга вырезал удивительное и увлекательное разнообразие намибийской фауны, в основном из корней горчичного дерева, дерева тамботи и железного дерева.
К сожалению, Пауло Кашинга скончался в 2012 году, но его характерные скульптуры, вырезанные из корней, продолжают украшать дома в Намибии и за рубежом. Первоначальная команда из восьми резчиков за последние годы изменилась и теперь состоит из пяти столяров: Йоханнес Лирунга, Лино Катива, Липенда Камбинда, Ндинга Ндумба и Давид Нанда.
Эти талантливые мастера разделяют навыки, видение и способность покойного Пауло Кашингаса вырезать из скрюченных, изогнутых корней и с первых лет являются ядром семьи галереи Тиколоше, снова и снова очаровывая посетителей бесподобными, почти анимированными скульптурами намибийских животных.
Дополнительные три продавщицы и два человека в администрации дополняют команду Тиколоше.

Following good rains, some people in the northern parts of the country are catching frogs at earth dams and pans, and eating them. African bullfrogs, sometimes referred to as 'Omafuma' locally, are prized in Namibia and are a good source of protein. Frogs are sold for between N$10 and N$20 each, depending on their size:
После недавних тропических дождей местные торговцы в северных частях Намибии ловят лягушек в земляных дамбах и плотинах и лотках и едят или их как деликатес. Африканские лягушки-быки, которых местные жители иногда называют «омафума», ценятся в Намибии и являются хорошим источником белка.
Лягушки продаются по цене от 10 до 20 намибийских долларов каждая (от 50 до 100 рублей), в зависимости от размера.
