Your panoramic photo did it for me. And the moon. I seem to recall another moon photo you did some time past but I cannot quite place it. As I may have mentioned in another place, your photos have a certain coolness and reserve about them with a placidity that underscores a tightness that is almost violent. False Bay is a case in point and some or your city scenes where the calmness of the water lies contrapuntal to the darkness of the clouds and broods with explosive calm.
I must consult my alienist to see if one could milk something freudian out of all of these....
The last False Bay is one of my all-time favourites. When it's bigger you can see the blue tearing through the clouds and reflecting off the water.
I feel chilled. Looks like something from the antarctic with the white clouds or fog being snow.
No.6 is my favorite.
I vote Best travel photos.
Nice photos Mia.
