Description
What is significant of this sunset - despite it depicting much of my mood - is the fact that these hills are also the divide for gold to be found in South Africa. To the near side some of the richest deposits in the world and if you go beyond, not a nugget. When the sun sets, the lions on these hills roar in unison, as if to guard this sacred divide. Am I too romantic? Yeah, I guess I am... May you have a peaceful week ahead.

When you gaze upon this and hear the lions roar, how can you not be a romantic. You must feel so close to the creator of "all things great and small". What a great moment Piet.

stunning sky!!! The dark clouds against thee rich color of the sky is amazing!
This is such an excellent capture of the sunset! Most skillfull and masterful image Piet, and the key word here is indeed "golden".... The DOF is marvellous, and this scene looks sublime; untouchable......... and yet the most beautiful reality! Marvellous colours as well... this is absolutely terriffic artwork!
What a dramatic shot ... well done.
Nature's beauty sums up the old saying "a picture is worth one thousand words." Another amazing South African view that shows your love of your homeland.
Your words are always so poetic; but that is because they come from your heart, which contains Pieter sonnets. The love you have inside for those you love and for South Africa shows in your words and in your photos. This is beautiful pieter, just like you.
If you ever meet someone that tells you they do not believe in the all mighty give them this link if they still feel the same way there is no hope for them as this is the most incredible sight! thanks for sharing hugs ))5++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I want to know what the in world is that flying in the middle rightside of the image? That is one big bird! As for the image, oh my that is amazing! You have been graced with a lovely sunset and the sounds of the wild many of us do not get to hear. Beautiful capture!
Beautiful!
What a stunning and glorious sky! Fascinating that you live near such a historic part of the world, and wonder if people are ever able to find the odd nugget here or there, or if it is all deep underground. Very beautiful image and I like the lone bird flying through the scene. :) Wishing you better days ahead, my heart goes out to you.
