Description
'North of Cape Town, hot, volcanic plains stride down to a cold Atlantic ocean. Namaqualand is the outback, a wilderness strewn with mines and mission stations, diamonds and dust. However, for a few frivolous weeks in spring, the granite hills and lava lowlands erupt with flowers.
About 4 000 species of plant lie dormant amongst the sand and stone, their germination dependent upon weather conditions.'

These are adorning the fields near Malmesbury, fields of white. I will post a pic of me getting this shot sometime...
Enjoy!
