Manor House, Durban 2005

Magnificent Manor House (1906) atop Durban’s Berea was designed by Stott & Kirby Architects for the Hulett family. Its grand Colonial architecture with Baroque style colonades and large porticos was well suited to Durban’s hot, humid climate and cool sea breezes. The house has commanding views of the city, Durban Harbour, and out over the Indian Ocean. In this sunrise photograph a cargo ship loaded with shipping containers can be seen anchored miles offshore, awaiting a berth in Durban Harbour. Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Fujichrome Velvia RVP100F. Nikon F100. Nikkor 70-300/4-5.6D.
