Heat

Early this morning the sun was already blazing - another scorcher of a day. On my way back from a walk in Silvermine I came across this tortoise legging it across the hot tarred road - no doubt to find a shady spot on the other side.

Pot of silver?

Rainbow over Silvermine - a showery, blustery day today. Silvermine is a section of the Table Mountain National Park where once, many many years ago, the early Dutch settlers prospected for silver in vain. Now its a glorious nature area in the middle of Cape Town.
