The friendliness of the people is just awesome...but, that said, I am still knocking on doors like a student scouting for models, presenting my case to agencies, putting ads in the newspaper, even talking to girls on the street, a lot of fun, as I've said before, but time consuming and there's a low hit rate.

It's so frustrating; I have raised the models' fees dramatically to get some action, but still no luck. As you can see from the shots from the last two days, girls are showing up for castings, really nice girls, but not girls that have that special something our members have come to expect! I am almost starting to believe some of the comments I have already received (see below) are true. But I will not give up. It's the Viking blood!

Luba and I headed to a famous local nude beach called Sandy Bay to look for possible candidates, but unless you are into shooting middle aged gay guys, this is obviously not the place. At least we got to tan our white asses a little.

Tonight we are checking out the local strip joints and hope for some nice surprises. I never forget how a night club in Moscow brought me some of the most beautiful girls I have ever photographed. Check back tomorrow to see what the strip joints in Cape Town had to offer.
