One of the famous far-away windsurfing spots in CapeTown with the name of obvious origin - MISTY CLIFFS. It is considered as reserve for the specialists of the game only. The waves are very big, very fast and exit is rocks, rocks and more rocks.
I tried to windsurf there once and was the only one without number on the sail (number with country symbol - SA4 - member of National Squad). I was really lucky that all my equipment survived after one mistake... i call this spot "reserved for the sponsored athlets"))))
While the spot is raw meet, it is beautiful and spectacular place.

Ronny @Ronny Olsson@ and Joshua @AGeoJO@,
I was about to joke that your images are strangly similar (both are beatifull, but even something in the mood is the same) but extremely different re temperatures, but remembered how cold the ocean in Namibia is...))))
I don’t know anything about windsurfing but those excellent images you posted show that that would be a great spot for that sport. I would love to take pictures there with and without windsurfers.
Thank you for your kind comment on the image of the Sandwich Harbor. Granted it was not as cold as Lofoten in the winter and there is no snow there but indeed, Namibia is colder than I imagined before the trip.

Love this shot Joshua! The photographer in the shot adds so much to it I think. What a dramatically beautiful place! Well shot! Steve
Thank you very much, Steve! I am glad you like that image.
I really enjoy your capture of the eclipse. The moon looks very 3-D in your image.
