I could finally appreciate the cycle of water and clouds on Lavasoa. On most days, you could witness a wide vista of strong incoming winds blowing sea mists from the beach, up the mountains and into the clouds above.

My favourite dune to climb on weekend walks, where I learned quickly that the dry foliage in the sands had enormous thorns. Is it prickly pear? I never found out.

Andasibe can be heaven when you wake to rainforest mists like these, coupled with the indri calls howling from within the trees.

Growing up where lightning is infrequent and underwhelming, I never tired of seeing storms, night after night for half the year. This was photographed from my own balcony, sheltered from the torrential rains that accompanied.
