The photo can't truly convey how this scene looked.

I thought this was so amazingly scenic that I just had to share it with you too. I don't know what is causing those ultra-low clouds on the left, either.

I love the colour of the sea in the first photo, too.

Monorail Dassie?

The clouds are probably due to cool air coming down the side of the mountain and flowing over the sea surface, condensing any water vapour in the warmer air that was there.

The water's pretty cold there. On a sunny day, the land is warmer.

Then its the opposite way around.. warm air coming down and being cooled by the ocean, causing condensation.

Either way. Warm air + cold air == clouds.

The Dassie one just trips my "not a real photograph" filter - I just can't tell where the top, middle and bottom are in relation to each other. (The previous photo in the Flickr stream adds enough context though.)

The dassie is cute indeed!
