Every picture tells a story and snappers are on the button with unforgettable images at any major sporting event, and that was no different at the HSBC Cape Town Sevens this weekend.
Everyone will have their own special memory from among the 45 matches played at The Cape Town Stadium with 106,202 spectators turning out in the sizzling heat across the two days to witness South Africa claim a third successive home sevens title, beating Argentina in the final.
Here are just a few of the moments from the competition that are sure to live long in the memory of those who witnessed the sporting extravaganza.

KYLE BROWN CELEBRATES: Captain Kyle Brown is held aloft by Ryno Benjamin, scorer of the fifth try in the final, with Brown appearing in his 50th tournament.
ARGENTINA: It was a day of celebration for Los Pumas, beating New Zealand for the first time since 2006, and reaching a first Cup final since 2009.
CAPTAIN FANTASTIC: It's been a tough couple of weeks for New Zealand, losing countless players to injury and suspension. DJ Forbes had stepped down as captain but with Scott Curry withdrawn after Dubai, Forbes returned to lead an inexperienced side.

FIJI: A new mascot, or a spy from another team? The Fijian side find a friend before the start of their match. The DHL truck was everywhere this weekend and provided some of the best pictures.
RODWELL: James Rodwell is shown a yellow card in the final match of day one in Cape Town. South Africa beat England 10-0 in a match with high stakes - the winner went into the Cup while the loser would compete in the Bowl.
