Sunset silhouette of the Horns, Drakensberg, South Africa. Crepuscular rays (God beams) diffracting at the neck between Inner Horn 3005m / 9858ft (left) and Outer Horn 3006m / 9860ft (right). The saw-tooth profile of tiny peaks to the left is a group called The Chessmen. Inner Horn was first climbed in 1925; Outer Horn in 1934. The names are believed to have been derived from the Zulu name for nearby Cathedral Peak. However, under some lighting conditions, as seen here, the gap between the Horns resembles antlers or deer horns. One of the last free ranges of the San people or Bushmen, the Drakensberg is steeped in San folk lore. Nikon F100, 70-300/4-5.6D, Kodak E100VS.
