the quiet sunset.2 - Storms River Mouth, South Africa, 2009

Storms River Mouth Rest Camp part of the Garden Route National Park on the border of the Eastern / Western Cape has to be my favourite National Park in South Africa.

A strip of lush vegetation, a large and sudden topographic change down to the coast, and probably some one of the most awe inspiring and as ‘close to the ocean’ official camping sites and chalets that you will find without breaking some rule… and, then there’s the scenerey.

About the photograph:
‘the quiet sunset.2, Storms River Mouth Rest Camp, South Africa, 2009′

Unable to do justice to this incredible place – with one photograph – I have posted an image that captures a typical evening combination of sunset, coastal rock formations and just a hint of accommodation. It will take some time to get through the images captured here so keep a lookout on my website as I will be adding a ‘travel’ type section soon. If you are planning a trip to South Africa this is one spot not to miss.

Just back from a week without internet, emails and twitter! Fantastic

…but yes, behind schedule…visited Tsitsikamma National Park at Storms River Mouth, which has to be my new favourite National Park in South Africa, as well as a quick stop at Leisure Island in Knysna and then on to Graaff-Reniet (& surrounds), via Prince Alfreds Pass, for a few days, sadly missed the Owl House in Neu Bethesda but have to save something for next time…

Will post images on website and blog shortly once the dust settles and in the meantime will be uploading my ‘Blackberry photo a day’ for the last week via Flickr (see last test post).

I am loving the Flicker to WordPress and Flickr to Twitter applications!
