PORT ELIZABETH - NELSON MANDELA BAY - My view of the city

Moby · January 22nd, 2006, 09:03 PM

Got to love digital cameras', so here are a bunch of PE photos, I am putting them in a seperate thread because its the way I see PE, which is not always everyone else's view. I am a big transport fan, so most things that I photograph are transported related. But every now and again I slip up and take something non transport related.
I have bundled them into catagories, hopefully I will find the time during the week to send the balance through. I hope you enjoy them, and please don't think I am trying to be 'funny' by not putting them in the first PE thread, its just that they might not appeal to everyone.
