I embarked on a journey to South Africa some time in November 2005. These are the photos taken on the plane before touching down in Cape Town.

This rocky terrain has little economic value but it is gorgeous.

Like #1 #3 & #4 , especially #1.
Prefer #2 with sky cropped to focus on the valley below.
#5 reminds me of moon or other planet surface pix/topography.

Thanks for sharing. :D

Coupled with a polariser, I could play around with the diffraction, quite fun though. :)
