A beautiful panoramic view of the mountains above Stellenbosch in the Western Cape of South Africa. I created the picture by stitching together a bunch of pictures I took with my DX6490.

I recently visited Cape Town, South Africa. Described by Sir Francis Drake in 1580 as "The most stately thing and the fairest Cape we saw in the whole circumference of the earth." It is a beautiful place to visit. You have everything: beautiful beaches, majestic mountains, scenic drives high above the cliffs next to the sea, nature hikes and the list goes on and on.

We even went for a hike up Table Mountain. The views are breathtaking. Even the winelands in the "Boland" near Stellenbosch has very much to offer. Needless to say we enjoyed it very much.
