Cape Town from dawn to dusk.  Bringing in the dimension of time to photography.  I took this series of photos about 20 years ago on Fuji Velvia slide film.  No access to the breakwater anymore, so this one is a classic and difficult to repeat.  I spent the entire day there - from before dawn to after sunset.  Was an interesting experience - cold, hot, lonely, then conversations with people who came to find out what I was up to, and final sprints up and down the breakwater before each pic as the sun went down and I needed to keep warm.  Turned out alright though, thanks to photoshop.
