I have many dreams, mostly ones one can hardly convey in spoken language. IÂ want nature and peace around me, yet IÂ do not want to relinquish digital photography. IÂ have a Nikon D200 with a very basic lens. I had a Canon 30D too, but what a disappointment. BIO I am 55, an IT consultant and tried my hand at diamond digging, computer programming, being a network & computer technician, web designer, amateur photographer, etc. I am a man of the bush and appreciate simple things. IÂ do photography assignments from time to time. I am privileged to live where IÂ do, (map), a rural area in South Africa where I can hear the lions roar just 12 miles (20km) from where I live. I love this site and the artists uploading their work and I don't think any other site offers this varied depth in artistic skills. Piet

Both flatlands and mountains have their merits Piet, each holds it's own beauty. These wonderful golden colourtones speak for themselves and the sky with cottonwool clouds, I can watch clouds for hours they way they change shape sometimes I see all sorts of faces in them. I see a couple in this image. The right hand edge of the top left cloud is the profile of a puppy dogs face, it even has an eye. Then again the shape looks like a fish, posssibly a young bream. I try and look beyond the image to see the invisible things. Excellent capture, and as I say there is more than meets the eye. Bravo!!!!!

Lighter and less moody you say. Mysterious I say, because you did not say what is beyond this gate. Beautiful shot with the colors of our flag (yellow and blue) in perfect harmony!
