[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken from the White Mountain resort in the kwaZulu Natal Midlands near the town of Estcourt. The Natal Midlands is one of my favourite destinations for a relaxing holiday where one can just enjoy nature.

When I am on holiday I almost always get up at sunrise to take some photos. It usually brightens my day. This photo was taken over a fence almost in the back yard of the resort minutes after sunrise. The valleys were still under a misty blanket and the soft rays of the early morning sun added to the tranquility. The little pink rose was just providing a final touch. The mountains on the horizon are part of the Central Drakensberg range.

Since this photo was taken I was back at White Mountain a few times hoping to take a similar shot but have never been lucky to see the vally like this again.

Enjoy!

Hi Wia,
Very beautiful landscape! The colors are very natural, perfect sharpness. The rose at the front is, in fact, a lovely touch for this marvel.

Pragtige landskap. Die omgewing lyk so skoon. Die mistigheid dra baie by tot die bekoring van die prent..

sweet photo.. great lanndscape is it !!

A lovely view Wiaand a good POV. I was going to comment on the lack of sharpness but I think the softer look suits this. Lovely colour and the fog in the valley makes the shot. TFS,
David
