Last night’s sunset from the sky was spectacular. Look closely in the first picture and you’ll spot Lion’s Head; in the second you can just see Cape Point; and in the third is the view across False Bay of Strand and Gordon’s Bay. #nofilter #sunset #capetown #lionshead #capepoint #falsebay #capetownskies #southafricanskies #flying #flight #upintheair #abovetheclouds #windowseat #welivetoexplore #wonderfulplaces #beautifulplaces #destinationearth #photooftheday #instagood #travel #travelphotography #wanderlust #instatravel #travelgram #travelshots
