Although there was still much water thundering down the waterfall and roaring through the gorge to mesmerize me and give a feeling of being sucked down into it. I chose different scenes to illustrate our recent visit to this part of the world. I guess my new long lens was instrumental in isolating some cameos of the 'Cubist' rock formations or observe the unpredictable, turbulent air movement rising from the bottom which sends the steam up in continuously changing patterns, some of it rising high enough to filter the light of the sunrise into a mysterious golden shroud.
This lunar landscape stretches for ever and the black mountains and red rocky outcrops, still fringed by gold grass, make for breath taking views from the top of the Swart Rante.
We discovered that there is a glass fronted cottage tucked under the viewing platform of Oranjekom Gorge and we have promised ourselves to stay there one day to enjoy the incredible view down the canyon where the colours of the rocks change dramatically through the day.
