The winter sun, creates a warm glow, as it rises over the sea on the east coast of South Africa
While we are experiencing extremely cold winter weather (9°C) during the day here in central South Africa, my sister-in-law, who lives at the coast, is sweltering under 29°C!

In June 2007, while visiting them, I managed to capture some beautiful photos of the sun rising over the sea.
My s.i.l. and her husband (my husband’s brother) have a home whose garden leads out onto the beach. (How blessed is that!) They, unlike us, are late sleepers and never rise until after 8.30 on weekdays and around midday over the weekends. When my s.i.l. saw these photos on my computer, she asked where I had taken them...

ReplyDeleteHi Guy;) thanks for your comment. Yes, the colours are unreal. I'm off to see your beautiful city - I love your shots. They inspire me to try harder when I am aiming my camera!
Hi SquirrelQueen;) welcome to my blog thanks for your comments.
Hi Ida;) thanks for visiting my blog WELCOME. I'm off to see yours now.
Yes, Esther, I'm sure you will capture a golden sunrise in Niger. The ones you posted a while ago (I think while Hanna was visiting) were STUNNING. How is your Swedish holiday going? Enjoy every minute of it. (((Hugs)))

Real golden wonders.
ReplyDeleteReturning the compliment Jo. What an incredible site you have, both home and in Blogshire. I really enjoyed browsing through and getting to know you and your extended family. It is many years since my best friend married and moved to J'burg SA and many years since we lost touch. Maybe she's no longer there. I'll be back to read more. God bless.
ReplyDeleteThose are just lovely!
ReplyDeleteHere's mine. It's a sunset, not a sunrise, because my husband works late, so sunrise, right now, is rather unattainable for us. But shots like yours remind me what we're missing!
Simply divine sunrise photographs! Joyce
ReplyDeleteA divine palette of color! Great capture! :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous - I hope your sister-in-law has decided to be an early riser and witness this awesome show firsthand!
ReplyDeleteThese are really great.

Hi Babooska;) Thanks for your kind comments. My husband asks if you have any news about Nick Crowe who had a bad accident on IOM this year. News reports are jumbled - we don't know what to believe.
ReplyDeleteHi Valerie;) that is SO sweet of you to visit my blog - thanks for your kind comments. I will follow your regularly. Nowadays people LEAVE South Africa - which is sad. My best friend left to go to the UK (now living in Scotland) and I managed to meet up with her after 30 years in 2005 at my sister's home in Basingstoke.
