Like sands<\/em> through the hourglass\u2026 Fast forward, please!<\/p>\n

Like light rays bouncing through the lens, these<\/em> are the days of our lives. We bet you can\u2019t imagine your life without a camera, capturing all the sweet moments, whether it\u2019s a loved one\u2019s birthday, graduation, wedding, or just annual holidays spent together.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s recorded that the average person captures 8.1 photos per day in Africa. So, when last have you taken a random photo? The click, the flash of light and the moment captured happen more often than we realise.<\/p>\n

For photographers, this is very noticeable. It\u2019s a passion that they have compassion for and one worth sharing! So whether you\u2019re a pro or just love to show, print or digital, we invite you to celebrate World Photography Day with us on Friday, 19 August 2022.<\/p>\n

How to celebrate World Photography Day in Sandton Central<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Let\u2019s pay tribute to this incredible art form by sharing your photo finds with the community. It can be anything: a group of people, a sunrise, someone caught indulging in ice cream or a fashionable gentleman tying his shoe in the middle of the hustle and bustle. Snap a few pictures of yourself too, and share all your best shots with us on Facebook<\/a>, Twitter<\/a> or Instagram<\/a> using #WorldPhotoDay<\/strong> and #SandtonPhotoDay<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Go wild<\/em>; make a collage, a video, hire a photo studio with friends for the day and take all kinds of photos – casual, professional, perhaps for marketing purposes? Or choose any of these best views in Sandton for your photo backdrops.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Radisson Blu Gautrain Hotel
    \n\"\"<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Just across the street from the train station, near Johannesburg’s city centre, the hotel<\/a> offers modern amenities, making it one of the top spots for photography. An on-site bar and restaurant offer authentic SA cuisine, international favourites, and drinks. Their outdoor swimming pool offers an incredible<\/em> view too.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Mushroom Park
      \n\"\"<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Mushroom Farm Park<\/a>, or Hyundai Sky Park, is a small green lung in the heart of Sandton. It used to be a mushroom farm, thus the name. It’s one of those tiny places that pack a lot to see. With its playground, hilly landscaped lawns and an outdoor gym, it\u2019s popular with families for weekend picnics. Dial-a-picnic<\/a> now and snap a few shots!<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Naked Coffee Sandton
        \n\"\"<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Not only does Naked<\/a> sell small-batch, hand-roasted, 100% Arabica coffee beans and blends produced using artisan methods, but their d\u00e9cor is also clean and reminiscent of a European style – fusing wood and copper tabletops. One of its most exemplary traits is that it\u2019s incredibly Instagrammable<\/em>. Check them out!<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Nelson Mandela Square
          \n\"\"<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Nelson Mandela Square<\/a> is an open-air piazza anchored by a majestic<\/em> six-metre statue of Nelson Mandela. Drawing inspiration from European-style piazzas, Nelson Mandela Square remains one of Africa\u2019s most exclusive dining and lifestyle destinations. While you\u2019re there, treat yourself to some fine dining and exclusive shopping.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Discovery
            \n\"\"<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Discover Growthpoint and Zenprop\u2019s sensually shaped building designed to encourage motion and connection. Like a spaceship set to sail, this building will add to your photos\u2019 unique visual signature, giving it that monumental statement.<\/p>\n

            These five spots are excellent for photography; however, we think anywhere in Sandton Central\u2019s streets is perfect! Make it heart-warming and just downright fascinating! But we\u2019ll appreciate whatever you share.<\/p>\n

            Happy Photography<\/em> Day, shutterbugs!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
