Mist changed into magic.

Come, let me show you how this magic of a cloud on the floor came about.

A display of mist, sun, clouds and moon here for you this morning. My intention was to do part 2 of the wine cellar, but in the midst of doing the replies to all of my comments, I looked out of my window and what you see here is what I saw.
Come and look out of my window!

Now I told you that it was very misty before the sun arrived.

Harry and Sally were also up here on a high road lamp waiting for the sun.

There were the first colors announcing the imminent appearance of the sun on the stage.

And there it was, fighting it's way through the clouds and the mist.

So the mist ran away, but the clouds densified and dropped to the ground.

I think that the clouds slipped around behind the mountain (east), to avoid the sun coming over from the west.

Finally the morning moon was also watching all of this.

A happy Easter Sunday to all and I really hope that some of us are getting some rest on this day. We went out, first to the mountains and then we had lunch at the sea.
So yes, as I downloaded my camera into the PC, there is about 750 photos that I took up till now. Some stunning shots to show you in my posts and I hope that you will like them.

And That's All Friends!

Note: All photos are fresh and my own, taken with a Canon Powershot SX60HS Bridge camera.

We hope that you have enjoyed the pictures and the story.

Weather fine and dandy, so happy for those who attended sunrise services along the beaches, after missing out last year.

All the visitors can now go home with a good dose of Vitamin D, I hope not too much since it was a comfortable windless day for the beach.

We have not been to a service for more than a year now on doctor's advice, as I am high risk, but I do communion for us here at home.
All those Vitamin D is certainly good medicine, but we find that the sun here is much stronger than up north and it burns marks on our skins. The creams don't help much, so we cover uo as much as we can.

I am struggling to find one of those cloth flap neck caps that the prospectors wear, as this K-WAY flap neck cap that I wear was made in China and it is useless in the wind.

Cloth neck cover bush caps are super expensive of late, easier to buy heavy cotton size of a large handkerchief and stitch it onto back of a cheaper cap. We have a couple originals from scouting days still in use for hiking.

Suppliers to fishermen or outdoor warehouse may still keep them on the shelf, or possibly you may have a scout shop down that way.

Scout Shop Cape Town you can always remove the name, not sure if they sell direct to public though.

Yep, mist can make boring images interesting, adding a mystic touch or isolating the main subject. Especially in woodland or with trees it's most times great to have mist around.
I love such shots, thank you Zac 👍😊

Yes indeed and we share the love of mist my friend.
There is a place here called Belfast where the mist gets so dense on the road early in the morning that one can only see 1 meter ahead on a drive. I used to sit outside on the front hood to guide the driver of our construction truck.

Mist certainly lends a mystic touch to things in nature.

Cheers and tanks.

Sometimes in Autumn and Winter we have such dense fog around the lake or even in town. Driving isn't easy on such days, but nobody sits on the front hood ... must have looked funny 😅

Hahaha, it was a construction truck with a big bull bar mountend on the front and I had a spotlight to use in case I heard oncoming traffic. We were worried that some stupid would overtake an oncoming car into our lane, as there are many head on smashes in this country.

One can simply not understand why anyone would overtake a slower car if they can't see the road ahead, but it happens regularly here and ends up in some horrific crashes.

Cheers and thanks.

If I don't see enough of the road in front of me I will certainly stay behind a slower car.
In driving school we learn you have to drive on sight or even on half sight, depending on the situation, and in dense fog you drive on half sight - slow enough to be able to stop the car in half the distance you see.

Some stupid people don't care, of course, they don't care that they are a danger for other people.

Oh no, that old country road is rarely used and one would have to wait half a day forv a car to come so that one can follow it. In that thick mist one would not see the car to follow as you can barely see your hand. But the job won't wait and one has to get there .

We don't have half sight teachings here and besides the reckless drivers don't even know the basic road rules, so will continue to make accidents like this one that we saw on our way home today.

Such is life here.

Cheers and thanks.

Reckless drivers are here too, and many more stupid drivers, but everybody knows how much speeding costs or driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

My son has held his phone in his hand while driving last year and got caught. This time he really only held it and didn't use it, but that didn't matter to the colleague. Because his drivers license is still on trial (3 years Trial driver's license) the trial duration was extended by one year and additional to the fine of Euro 50 he had to attend a course (4 x 2 hours) which had cost 500 Euros ... for holding a smartphone.

There are accidents here, the bigger the town the more, but to be honest, I hardly see any.

The moon is easy to get, but the mist rarely appears.

Blessings!
