Moody Table Mountain
(This is an archived post; click on blog header for current content)

Not all is ever smooth and peachy with Cape Town’s weather. Table Mountain acts as an incredible torturer of skies, focusing the impact of conflicting air masses and unleashing strange downdrafts and pouring rains unto the city it dwarfs. 

Below is an example. Approaching from the south and stuck in slow-moving traffic, we had ample time to marvel the mountain’s magnificent impact on every aspect of the city’s mood.

    « I love these pictures, #4 especially - but the last two very much as well: not something one often sees, captured. I like the traffic and container component. »

    « Containers always remind me of the ocean and faraway ports... »

  • 2 - Guy says:

    « Hi Vince,

    Sorry to be so pedantic, but your approach to Table Mountain was from the East. But, then I suppose you are a deep sea diver, where the most important directions are up and down!

    We hope that you are well and enjoying the Terrace, Vlam and El Gatto. »

  • 2.1 - Vince answers:

    « Oops. I stand corrected. It’s awful how bad my sense of directions remains around Cape Town even after so much time spent there... You are right about the diver in me, however the pilot is ashamed... ;-)

    We are well and missing you both. »

  • 3 - Cape Accommodation says:

    « Stunning pics! I love the 1st one! Absolutely gorgeous. Cape Town is such a beautiful city . »

  • 3.1 - Vince answers:

    « Hi Cape Accomodations,

    I normally do not allow comments from non photography-related commercial web sites even if my spam catcher misses them, but in this case I’ll make an exception because if more people visit South Africa, it ultimately serves the greater good - and because Cape Town is indeed a beautiful city.

    Cheers! »
