Homeward Bound by Neville A Bailey, on Flickr
Whilst travelling from Johannesburg to Durban today, I caught this poignant moment of weary workers heading home at the Sand River, near Van Reenen’s Pass, with the ominous signs of a storm brewing in the distance.

Nice photo, it captures that very specific bluey/gray colur before a storm hits.

Glad you're feeling better again

Botched Moonrise Shot by Neville A Bailey, on Flickr This was supposed to be my Pic of the Day yesterday (full moon rising over the ocean behind the Oyster Box), but I botched up the focus and this was the sad result!

Try again tonight, Neville. How about a moon rise through the arch of Moses Madiba?

Try again tonight, Neville. How about a moon rise through the arch of Moses Madiba?

The moon is rising much later tonight - about 7.20pm, and I don't want to drive out there then. I have a nice view of the ocean from my Westville patio, with the Durban skyline, so that might be an option...

Regarding the arch, the angle of the moonrise relative to the arch is very sharp, so that will be difficult. I have planned to get the sunrise through the arch in the middle of October, when it will rise nice and square through the arch!

Sometimes the most insignificant things in one’s garden can be the most beautiful, even when it is wilting!
