A day at the beach is one thing, a day at Limanaki in Vouliagmeni is another. Far from crowded sandy beaches, Limanaki is just a small bay between Vouliagmeni and Varkiza. There is no beach infrastructure, just a small kiosk to grab a coffee or a beer and have some snacks. There is no internet connection and there is no mobile phone; what a pleasure.

Can you imagine sitting at the beach without all these people around you hooked to the mobile and competing with each other for decibel?

Limanaki is the retro beach par excellence and the good news: 5 million Athenians don’t know the place!

There is always a welcoming smile and no wonder YorgoMan made a friend right at the source:

Best of all, you always meet cool people, friends and the clearest water you can imagine. Far from the city, the noise, the hassle, the feel of an island.

Relaxed people have a relaxed attitude and that shows on the faces.

And as I like to shoot faces, Limanaki is a great playground for snaps:

And more faces:

And another one:

How about a swim?

…or a dive?

No doubt, a day at Limanaki is a day in paradise!

Portraits of Africa 2012 on Google

Time again to monitor and check the performance of our new WP based Semiomantics XO 2012 Script on search engines.

Here’s a screenshot of yesterday’s post “Portraits of Africa 2012″ on Google – have a look! Positions 1, 2, 3 and 6 ahead of 10,800,000 search returns – YEBO GOGO!

Portraits of Africa 2012 on Google

When looking up “Portraits of Africa 2012″ on Google, I also checked how the images in my article were ranked – here’s the detail of the screenshot showing the Image of a “Young African Girl” on position one, followed by the Image of a “Young African Boy” on position 4… and a small ad I created ages ago peeking at us on position 2. All of them ahead of our South African presidents… just too funny! The young generation is on the move!

Portrait of Africa Images

It becomes even more intrigueing when we look up “Portrait of Africa Images” on Google and find these young faces of Africa featuring amongst some really classy photography! And again… the random positioning is just too weird… for those who read this and understand what I mean! Welcome to the future :)

Fact is, that with the increasing importance of images and media on the Internet – and with this for our website development – … and people preferring to look at something for quick grasping of the contents rather than reading long time-consuming – and even worse: thought-provoking -  texts… that the correct tagging and classification of photos and images becomes more important. Here as with any post what counts is to be found on Google – Google Top 10 that is. Noone else looks further…

Congratulations to our young friends who’ve made it to the top ranks and find themselves in interesting and attractive company! There will be more….

Cape Town Weddings

It’s that time of the year where many couples celebrate their love and add meaning to their words by getting married!

One of the Best Cape Town Wedding Venues is of course Monkey Valley Resort in the romantic Noordhoek Valley on the slopes of Chapman’s Peak – however, my favourite hotel in Cape Town itself – where we spent a couple of weeks when researching our future home – is the elegant and citywise optimally situated Vineyard Hotel in Claremont, Cape Town. Below is a view from the terrace towards the majestic Table Mountain range…

It’s here, in the lush and beautiful gardens… washed by light rains that very day until just a few minutes before the wedding… where stage one of the beautiful and very private Wedding Ceremony took place that I had the privilege to document.

All Wedding Photography & Videography will be integrated in the brand-new Wedding Website currently under construction.

Cape Town Weddings

What is relevant for Cape Town Weddings is probably desired by all newly wed couples, especially if their families and friends are spread all over the world as is the case here: they want some photos as fast as possible to show!

So this was my first focus… developing something to show fast! Accordingly, within a few days, the couple had an elegant online Wedding Photo Suite to send out and even print… followed by a short and joyful Wedding Video with special Irish harp music!

At this stage, the work is understandably private; I will be able to show more later as the development of the website itself proceeds. This will take a while, partly due to a strong emphasis of the ‘time before’ the wedding and the relating preparations, as well as the fact that I have to switch to a new computer with lots more memory and punch especially for media development (videos). On top of this, I will be using a brand-new Semiomantics Script to be released only in January 2012.

Wedding Photos

Meanwhile, there must be about 2,000 wedding photos and wedding video clips to view and select from… a real joy as here is real happiness to ‘work’ with!

Fingers crossed my PC system holds as I have hardly any space left and due to the devastating floods in Thailand, a main hardware supplier was washed away completely and we have to wait for new parts…

Enjoy!

Irish Wedding Ceremony

While the rendering of a complex After Effects Project in connection with our final Ycademy Seminar 2011 takes up almost all time and memory on my PC right now – with renderings of single items projected over 15 hours and more… (…ooooh, I can forget everything else for the time being…), my main focus is on the preparation of a Wedding Website based on Wedding Photos taken earlier this week. Here’s a picture of what I call the Irish Wedding Ceremony.

Irish Wedding Ceremony

While an Irish Wedding Ceremony has many intricacies, here I just show a mother’s very loving hands as they pass something very meaningful to her daughter, the bride.

Cape Town Wedding Photography

Cape Town Wedding Photography by Bianca Gubalke  -  this photo was taken yesterday, just when the first rays of the sun broke through the rainy morning clouds… It was the moment when the bride was ready to leave home to enter a new chapter in her life!

Cape Town Wedding Photography

Cape Town Wedding Photography is the foundation of the Wedding Website I am developing over the next weeks on a WP based Semiomantics Script – possibly a new website development alltogether.

The wedding was yesterday; now it’s sifting and sorting time to choose from the best wedding photos and the wedding videos to create what will eventually become a Family Album Online.
