Once Inspired

I wrote this sometime ago, as you can tell by the date mentioned in the main body. I just had to share it with you. I look at these pictures time and time again. A Westcoast Sunset as you have never seen it. Please understand that this was an emotional moment for me.

That evening the precipitation was setting up for a sunset of epic beauty. “Mother Nature, you have outdone yourself.” I thought to myself. Epic beauty is a description which fell well short of what unfolded Saturday, 23 May.

Lauren and I headed down to Blouberg and thankfully remembered the camera. Although pictures simply don’t portray the raw emotions drawn out by such an occasion, they are amazing. For me this is the essence of natural beauty at its best. (Insert all beauty clichés here).

The clouds looked like mud flung onto God’s blue canvas with a series of oil slicks therapeutically flowing amongst the inverted panorama.

“This is the best moment of my life.” I said to Lauren while holding her, as a tear made its way onto the sand unnoticeable amongst the diminutive craters left by the scanty rain drops.

Now I know some of you “macho” boys might be questioning my sexual orientation but before you get excited, I am just sharing the love. You should try it sometime.

Pictures were taken from Horse Trails (Blouberg)

Go now, be beautiful, and love…

Enjoy the pics.

How's those clouds?

A short while later

I know? How terrible is that?

Everything was that colour, even the dogs had an orange shimmer

Good bye sun. WOW
