From the Internationally award nominated series Becoming South African.
A field of quartzite of the Black Reef formation, which along with the aloes sit nestled atop the highest point, 1486 m above sea level, of one of South Africa's oldest mining towns, Kaapsehoop. The name can be translated to 'hope of the cape' as the discovery of gold in 1882 in the small creek which runs parallel to this field inspired hope amongst mining prospectors.
