Description
Reprocessed for the new site - [link]I captured this 3 years ago in a reserve in a mountain valley just outside my home town. Though the lane still stands, the plantations around it have burned down and the ground within the reserve is being rehabilitated to it's natural flora. So this scene will never be the same again.
Jonkershoek nature reserve, South Africa

Very nice picture! And you know, despite the country's problems, I still thin South Africa is one of the most beautiful places on earth.

reminds of strange feeling when autumn brings the smell of cold air and the only relief is cosy carpet of leaves on the last grass... 4 that.

This is such a beautiful scene. I just love that the colors seem to fade down the path. Brilliant.
