WOW, and THIS is why everybody wants to live here . . . 
While we humans moan and groan about the cold and wind, nature flaunts its beauty all around - regardless of the weather and people's feeble toil and turmoil .. .
Keen local photographers Riaan Human, Pamela Taylor and Magda Hopley captured the whales, the birds and beauty . . . and Riaan so eloquently sums it up:
This morning at The Point, Mossel Bay
Early morning and dawn is breaking grey
With storm clouds on the Eastern horizon
blocking the colouring rays of the rising sun
A cool westerly breeze stirs the incoming tide
As it smashes against the rugged rocky shore
All is well at the Point
A Southern Right whale waves its tail at the flock
of cape cormorants drawing lines in the sky
An African Black Oyster Catcher hunts out on the rocks
And a few Cape fur seals play loops in the surf
As a pod of bottle-nosed dolphins glides past
All is well at the Point
A Southern Right whale waves its tail at the flock
of cape cormorants drawing lines in the sky
This is where we gather every morning if we can
Some come for coffee or to check out the surf
And walkers and runners or some just for chat
We breathe the fresh air and gaze out at the sea
The view costs you nothing the beauty’s for free
All is well at the Point
An African Black Oyster Catcher hunts out on the rocks
A Southern Right whale waves its tail at the flock
of cape cormorants drawing lines in the sky
The view costs you nothing the beauty’s for free
All is well at the Point
When the sun sets the sky and see alight . . .
All is well at the Point
