Breathtaking Winter Views Across Grootbos and Walker Bay

The parting shot this week is actually in two parts taken across the landscape today, which was a glorious winter's day. The first shot was taken at sunrise overlooking the Grootbos Environmental Centre which lies tucked away deep in an unspoilt, wild valley.

And this shot was taken at sunset today from the Grootbos Foundation administration office, which enjoys a magnificent view overlooking Walker Bay. This is truly a beautiful part of the world. From all of us at the Foundation, I wish you a wonderful weekend.
