The supreme beauty of nature.

in #hive-1277882 years ago

First off, a Happy Friday to all and today I will show you what this tree hides.

So come and let's see what is behind this tree.

We certainly live in a beautiful area and there is always so much to see. The nights might be difficult with all of the power cuts, but the beauty in the days makes up for it. I am not saying that the power cuts during the days are not difficult, as the economy suffers, but that's a story for another day. Right now let's concentrate on the beauty that Mother nature bestows upon us all for free.
So come and feast your eyes and your soul.

This below is what it looked like when we arrived. That old tree stands like a sentinel, jealously guarding its terrain.

So I stepped our from the car and here I was under the tree.

Stunning views behind the tree.

A look at the mountain towards the left of the tree and watch that cloud at the top.

Ever so slowly that top cloud tumbled down and started to caress the top of my tree.

Finally here's a full view of that mountain and the sun was trying to draw a curtain over it.

Early days and an early post to try and dodge the power cuts, but my heart is always happy to see the gifts from Mother nature, as they do indeed lighten my mood. There are always opportunities to be found in the dark problems that assail our lives, and my opportunity during the problem of the power cuts is get out there and to drink the nectar of nature's views into my mind.
So here we go now to get more pictures that I will post after the power cut and I hope that you have enjoyed the post.

And That's All Friends.

Really beautiful <3

Your photos took me right there for a moment

Thank you and I think that you have been "right there" for many moments.
It happens to all of us.
Such is life.

!HBIT

Beautiful!

Winter here so I can't wait to be "there" again. Thanks for the moment! ❤️

So can you believe it that t is also winter here in the Cape province. But I can still get the moments to be "there" again.
Blessings!

You're here??? So am I 😁

Wow. I won't ask if you're concerned about privacy but what a place you're in! Gorgeous...

Also in the Cape province? We are about 40km away from the city.
Thank you.

Yes!

I'm in the Deep South for now but a move is on the cards...

Looks gorgeous where you are (?)

I'm headed a bit out of the city as well I reckon. It's too expensive around here and the stress levels are palpable now

Good that you are thinking about getting out. I will never live in a city again.

Now here's a tease for you. We live in town that is close to the Hottentot-Holland mountains. A bay that is backed by the mountains and fronted by the ocean. Where is this?

Traffic jams, noise and a crazy fast life where one has to keep a constant look out for criminals is a life that I greeted 4 years ago and we !LUV it here.

Good pictures to see the mystery of a tree and the beauty of its surroundings. For those who know how to look and see, there is a lot of natural beauty around us.

Many mysteries waiting in nature to reveal themselves to those "who know how to look and see".
It is that same beauty that lays at rest inside each of us and if only we will all start to show it, but sadly this hurried and harassed world does not teach that.

I thought what was behind the tree, it turned out to be a very cool mountain. nice photos.

Glad that you could solve the mystery as it was indeed a mountain range.

Cheers and have a !PIZZA

I like this tree - it hides this awesome mountain, so that I can have it for me alone because no one else knows that it is there 😀

Good evening Hannes,

I am just out of the latest power cut and things are crazy over here.

Yes, that tree is a jealous guard that I plead with every time to allow me to take some photos 😉

Cheers and thanks.

Good morning Zac,

I don't know what the future brings, but no power would be one of the worst things, I believe. If ever we should have a power cut I will have to learn from you 😁

Some beauty is not meant to be seen by everyone and the tree knows you belong to the good people who are allowed to see all beauty that Mother Nature has to offer 😊

Good evening Hannes,

No power is not the worst of it my friend, the worst of it is to feel so powerless. So maybe I should start a an advice agency for powerless people including hopeless people 😁 !LOLZ

Hahaha, I think that the tree is tired of my pleading with it to get the beauty that's behind it 😉

Cheers and thanks.

Good afternoon Zac,

I know what you mean by "powerless" and I would also use the word "helpless" because there's basically nothing you can do, except prepare your home before they shut the power off.

I thought you already have this agency for hopeless people because you're helping so many of them 😊

Hi Hannes, the thing is that it is very expensive to prepare the house and I don't like to make cheap attempts, as cheap is always expensive later. So I have to do what I can afford and that's not much.

Yes, Papillon helps people, but it is focused on poor people and we cannot help rich helpless people, as then there will not be enough for the poor. So we are all helpless together 🤣

Cheers and thanks.

You're very right, Zac, buying cheap means buying expensive later, that's so true and I could tell you quite some examples from my life 😎 !LOLZ

Yep, I know and I meant the helpless poor people, of course 😉

I learned that from my mom, as she was a wise woman and saved up until she had enough to buy an expensive item. She could get a cheaper one at more than half the price, but she never did.
So you know what I am talking about as you have experienced it for yourself 🤣 !LOLZ

I know that you know what I know about what you know 😁

Cheers and thanks.

Wow
What an impressive place and the tree even more beautiful.

Thank you for the appreciation of the post!

Paradise corner of the world, especially considering the seaside with gulls is on another side of the area. !LOLZ

I am so happy that we ended up here, as I have been longing for the sea most of my life. Now I have it in my back pocket, plus the bonus of the mountains. A happy chappie. !LOLZ
