Aftermath

Beach Storm

Not quite beach weather, but still spectacular - here is the aftermath of a stormy downpour at Paternoster, West Coast.

Storm

Paternoster beach on the West Coast.  We recently spent a few days relaxing in a beach cottage, when this storm developed and darkened the skies.  A lull in the heavy rains provided an opportunity for me to grab my Pentax K7 and charge down the beach to capture a few surreal images.

Tranquil

A sea of tranquility on the West Coast near Stywelyne, the possibilities are endless.

Wind Power

Near Malmesbury, a previously defunct experimental wind power farm has finally been called into service since Eskom dropped the ball and displayed gross incompetence with South Africa's power supply.

Wind Power

These wind turbines were constructed several years ago by Eskom near Malmesbury. For a decade or so they have apparently been 'unviable' and unproductive, however in our current economic & power crisis they are starting to prove themselves as more are being developed on the West Coast.
