Message from the Editor:
In our newsletter today we launch our .... ta-da! ....Caption Competition!
Every week we will feature an interesting photograph from a Safrea photographer that is just crying out for a caption, and we invite you - our readers - to provide one that is funny, punny, thought-provoking, or off-the-wall. Our winners will have bragging rights and their pearls of wisdom will be immortalised on our MediaHub website.
Send your brilliant caption ideas to safreachronicle@gmail.com.
Our first picture was taken by regular contributor Sam Basch, who snapped a smiling water feature in Jeffrey's Bay.
