Long street 365.25 November 2011

Long Street in Cape Town city centre is one of the city's most popular destination areas. It has a great mix of shops in addition to bookshops, restaurants, bars and lots more. The various businesses operate from early mornings till very late affording the street a great vibe and mix of people. 

By posting a picture daily I am hoping to capture the feel of Long Street throughout the year as seasons/moods/people change. The pictures are taken by people working in Long Street and not professional photographers, hoping to capture and to share what makes us love our street.
Thanks for all your support since this blog was started in June 2011!
