But the weather turned around

My idyll with late autumn colours and lights came to a full stop today. After a miserable, wet day yesterday the full might of a South Atlantic storm ripped into the Cape Peninsula this evening.

This picture was taken from Boyes Drive, looking over Muizenberg; a similar spot to this one - two weeks ago http://365project.org/eleanor/365/2011-05-19

Great to see the waves roll in, in both pictures but in a much more dramatic way in this one!

Superb - came in on the back of the flight diversions earlier and breathed a sigh of relief ! Can't say I like flying over this magnificent sight :-)

wow. incredible!!

Boyes Drive is just amazing. The vue constantly changes. Think it's one of my favourite views. Especially with the waves coming at such an angle. Those clouds look as if they are going to chuck it down. Great light/shadow balance. Love the composition. Really well done. Great shot E. X
