Here’s the crux of the story, folks! The Christian cross, a global heartthrob, wowed audiences way before Christianity. Used by many ancient civilizations as an emblem, the cross has had star turns as the Egyptian Tau Cross and the luck-bringing Fylfot Cross! Nowadays, it’s often seen in fashion showrooms, tattoo studios and, hey, even as symbols of hope, love and sacrifice at Parktown Convent. Now that’s a true cross-over celeb!
Anton Smit, famed South African sculptor, rules the roost in the art world with his colossal abstract structures, most notably – the bare dude in Cape Town’s Idiom Winery. This metal masterpiece enhances its surroundings, collaborating effortlessly with vineyards and vintage wines. So, if you fancy a tipple and eye-catching outdoor art, take a joyride along the Helderberg Wine Route. Just don’t drop your merlot in surprise!
Stroll in Paris and spot a Haute Couture shop? It’s not just fancy babble! A combo of exclusive, tailor-fitted clothing, obsessively handmade from bizarrely high-end fabrics—it’s “high sewing.” Prepared to mortgage your car or home for one piece, though. Today, it still represents luxury, regulated by Paris’ ‘Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture.’ Alas, if, like me, you’re an everyday-Joe, much safer to stick to the off-rack stuff.

Welcome to the world of photoshoots, where ‘clicks’ become ‘coins’ and pigeons photobombing are all part of the fun! With the ‘Trade for Portfolio’ barter system, amateurs get their shot at the limelight, professionals step it up with contract-heavy carnival-of-commerce shoots, and conceptual artists paint dreams with their pixels. Post-production, photoshoots become stories, and, with a sprinkle of Skylum Luminar magic, truly spectacular images come to life— because in this world, every frame tells a tale.
