Autumn spring green

May 11, 2015

This is what I've been looking for: the spring green of new growth out of the charred black stems of proteas and other fynbos bushes. Driving over Ou Kaapse Weg one can see a fine green velvet appearing on the hills over the past month, despite the very light and very seldom rainfall. Sea winds  condensing into clouds of mist on the upper slopes of the mountain provide ample moisture; evident in the contrast between the still sepia toned lower slopes and the spring green that is appearing both from the ground as well as the bushes in the higher areas.
