A sunrise mountain picture post.

A cold Saturday morning.

Oh yeah, as you can see we were at what felt like 4 or 5C early this morning, but I had my "genuine" Russian fur hat (made in China) on my head.

We expect another coldfront with rain and snow on Tuesday and so I am looking forward to many more photo opportunities. At other places up north in the country they had 1 meter of snow, but over here we only have the usual mountainpeaks covered by snow.
This is what I had on my camera.

Oh yes, the previous week's snow was still hanging around as the air was cold enough.

I had a limited view of the peaks from our garden.

The rising sun cast some magical colors on the mountains.

Here's another peak with both snow and early sun colors. That narrow valley below the sun cloud looks ideal for skiing, but they would have to create a huge foam covered stop for the skiers, as it is a far way down to mother earth from that peak.

Now tell me that you could see our moon above the mountain.

Not? Here is a closer look at our cold day moon.

Apart from the recent looting and destruction in our country, nature offers us some sanity and it also shows that life goes on. South Africans are known as resillient people and the dust had scarcely settled after the looting masses, when members of all nationalities joined hands to start cleaning up the destroyed areas. Compamies also joined and offered their services for free. So, just as secure as the mountains here are standing, we will also be anchored in our efforts to help each other.

And That's All Friends!
