We are blessed with the mountains and the ocean here. I will share some views.
You will see some landscape photos in here (5 shots), and then some sunset photos on the seafront (5 shots).
They say that we have the best of both worlds here, and I had no idea that we would end up at the supreme southern tip of the African continent. Amazing to see how life makes its own plans that upends our human plans. I wanted a place at a dam and a mountain, and it turned out now to be a big "dam" namely the Atlantic Ocean, and a full range of mountains. All within easy reach, and no need to travel long distances in order to visit nature, as it is all around us.
Another good thing is that we live close to a hospital, and with my dicey health system it is much needed. Nature is also my hospital as I always feel good to be out there in the fresh mountain air, and to listen to all of the bird choruses. Oh yes, I just cannot stop talking about the healing powers of nature, and there is nothing artificial about it, as everything is only the real deal, with no generics.
Like I said above, 5 daylight shots, and then 5 sunset shots. So come and take your pick.
Right, now here below are the 5 sunset shots.
You will see that I took the shots from my favorite high spot, and I focussed as usual on the beachfront, as at first I shared 5 inland shots, and now I share 5 shots at the ocean side. We live between the two, inland and ocean, and at times it is difficult to choose which side to visit for me to take some photos. In this post today, I decided not to do 10 shots on only the inland, or 10 shots of only the sunset, as it could become boring, and I rather chose to do a combination of both the mountain and the sea.
The sun had just dropped behind the mountain.
This below was on the way back home.
I received a notice that we are in line for 3 super full moons in a row, and the first will be in November, then December and the third in January 2027. It is said that a super moon is so called because the full moon will be closer to the earth. Not much closer to the naked eye, but scientifically closer. Three chances for me to get it in case bad weather clouds block one or two super moons. I will be happy if I can get only one, or maybe two as a bonus. So, my camera zoom is very excited to get it Lol.
Such is life.
I hope you have enjoyed the pictures and the story.
