One can never know what the next day will bring, especially weatherwise.
I will share 5 shots of the morning mountain peaks, and 5 shots to show you how the clouds were chased across the sky in the afternoon.
Had to go to a meeting and took some shots along the way. Papillon launched a pilot project at one of the schools for children with disabilities late last year and the project was a great success, so we have continued it this year. I don't want to say too much about it, as I will soon do a full post on it. Photography is one of my habits, and hardly a day goes by that I don't take photos, either in nature or here in the small gardens at home.
Come and see.
We love to watch the clouds blanketing the mountains, as eventually it will cover the entire mountain. The great thing about this, is when one gets to the foothills of the mountains then it looks like a great big white wall. The wind is supposed to come from the SSE, but then there are crosswinds from both the East and the West. You will see, in the second part of the photos, how the crosswinds divide the clouds.

Totally different, and totally beautiful.
This was a view towards the south and you can see how the wind, coming from the south, is struggling against the wind from the west.
And then back at home, with a dense cloud cover starting to appear.
Can you believe that this is a late afternoon photo, and you can see that the streetlamp is not on yet, and the sun was behind it. Look at that sun halo trying to form, but sadly it was not successful.
I walked closer to the two high palms and then went on to my knees to get this shot below. The reason why I went on to my knees, was to avoid the streetlamp.
So yes, as I said above, one can never know what to expect and I always look forward to it. We go out there with expectations, and we are hardly ever surprised as we prepare for any eventuality, and there are many over here. But there are also many less eventful periods, especially now in late autumn and with the winter rains coming. We have had some serious rain coming down to prepare us for the winter storms. I took some shots of that rain incident, and maybe I will show it to you in the post after this one.
Such is life.
I hope you enjoyed the pictures and the story.
