Friday 13 January 2012: Light on the Mountain
This has become a rare sight in the last couple of months. For a while this morning the clouds lifted from the mountains and for once the air was wonderfully clear. Then a patch of sunlight slowly drifted along the Torlesse Range. Here the Rubicon Peak is illuminated. A few minutes before it was the turn of the Castle Hill Peak on the left.
As you can see in large there is practically no snow left, except for a few specks in the Amphitheatre at right, and one halfway down the gully below the peak.
I don't know what the crop is. It has white brassica flowers and large seed pods, just visible in front. It will be grown for the seed.
Today is my son's birthday. He has requested home-made pasta for dinner.
