Holiday Destination

…the Sutton Salt Lake…IMG_7725…not really  a lake…more of a 2 acre puddle…

…and not even that a couple weeks back when we visited…IMG_7724….in the heat of the day….IMG_7727

..thankfully there was some shade to take lunch in.

Aramoana Sunset

…the sun going down behind Mt. Cargill…IMG_7960IMG_7961IMG_7965IMG_7963

…and Dee standing in it…

…listening to the young mullet (we think) jumping to catch bugs….

….like standing in the rain without getting wet…

…then a royal spoon bill flew low in line with the other side of the inlet all lit golden like a painting on silk….

…shit.

My Blue Period

…Bruce told me my Octopi were the wrong colour….IMG_7806

…this one is blue ‘cos it’s winter and it’s cold…IMG_7807

…possibly not what Bruce meant.

…(yes, I added the birds…felt the need to break up that pale green winter sky).
