Hi from Cape Town, South Africa

Helloo

I am 28 years old from Cape Town, South Africa.

My profession is an air traffic controller but I really enjoy photography as a hobby. Recently got into bird photography and now trying to improve in my bird recognition and photography :)

Will post some images in the gallery.

Chris

Hi Chris, welcome. I fell in love with Cape Town in November of 2006. I still have a lot of bird and flower pictures that I have not been able to identify. I will be watching your gallery posts. I am anxious to get back to your beautiful city.

Howzit Chris. I love South Africa, but haven't made it to Capetown yet (spend most of the time in or near the Kruger), but hope to visit soon.
Enjoy Birdforum - the people here are really friendly and knowledgable.
Regards
Allan
