Magaliesberg Mountain Rock Formations at Sunset with a View over the Mountain Range, Magaliesberg Mountains, North West Province, South Africa
The Magaliesberg is a mountain range extending west and north from Pretoria to just south of the Pilanesberg and extending for some 50 km east of Pretoria where it peters out just south of Bronkhorstspruit. The highest point of the Magaliesberg is reached at Nooitgedacht from where this photo was taken. The Magaliesberg are also historically known as Macalisberg or as the Cashan Mountains. The Magaliesberg is said to have formed some 2 billion years ago after a massive upwelling of molten magma resulted in what is now known as the Bushveld Igneous Complex. The Magaliesberg is a protected area and also an area very diverse in indigenous flora endemic to the area. From this elevation one can see all the way into the North West Province towards Rustenburg. This photograph shows the natural rock formations up close at sunset

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the Magaliesberg Mountain Rock Formations at sunset. The rugged and majestic rock formations stand tall against the vibrant hues of the setting sun, creating a breathtaking view over the entire mountain range in South Africa's North West Province. The Magaliesberg Mountains stretch from Pretoria to just south of Pilanesberg, covering a distance of approximately 50 km east of Pretoria before tapering off near Bronkhorstspruit. Nooitgedacht, where this photograph was taken, offers an elevated vantage point that allows one to gaze into the vastness of the North West Province towards Rustenburg. Formed around 2 billion years ago through a massive upwelling of molten magma known as the Bushveld Igneous Complex, these ancient mountains hold great historical significance. They were once referred to as Macalisberg or Cashan Mountains. Not only is this area protected due to its natural splendor but it also boasts incredible biodiversity with indigenous flora endemic to this region. This photograph showcases intricate details and textures found within these natural rock formations when observed up close. With its vivid colors and vertical composition, this color image by Mitchell Krog evokes a sense of wonder and invites viewers to immerse themselves in nature's grandeur.
