A picture a Day - too

one

Here is the one for today - that's Francois, about to fly off on his Kite Buggy. The other is of a Kite Boarder making it look really easy, and taking the dog for a walk at the same time.

New day, new face, early in the day, not much light.

Well for a change I'm early, last one in before - well maybe not.

Auckland fashion week and high fashion indeed, sitting there in the rain, waiting!

Taste of Japan, brilliant concert, the taiko drummers played so well and the audience were bouncing in time.

A picture or two, late afternoon run at the long beach, clouds the sky and the breaking surf.

Wonderful spring day, the sun, the beach - it's got to be Muriwai.

Well this is not the one I thought it would be, so I'll add another one later. Safety or a badge of privilege?

Just love the fresh lookof Auckland Domain, the trees are striking in their spring colours.

24 hours late, broken and a light of many colours.

Harsh and powerful sunlight fell on the temple kissing the branches of the cherry trees, throwing their patterns onto the walkway while the luscious greens of the borders, the tranquility of the stones wait patiently for the blossom.

Having moved from the waterside to the roadside the speed and noise of the traffic was such a contrast.

The gate to the pool, the sun and the promised warmth of the summer to come.

Such a bright sun this morning there are shadows and reflections everywhere. It's spring and this flock of geese are on the move.

Wanted to try this out for a while, bought the statue many years back - love, dance, dark, solarisation.

Been thinking about this for a while, so this is the first version, needs a lot of work, so lets see. Enough background detail, plenty of dirt.

a stone rose would smell as sweet!

The image was in my hand, now what have I done with it?

Like it.

How about this for a spur of the moment I've got to upload a pix?

Fishing together at Piha beach.

So failed on this one, forgot to upload it last night. View of the garden through a still spring water bottle.

So I'll do the late to bed bit. Moody and quiet I had the garden to myself with just the light through the blind. I had gone out to capture the palms and the clouds, but there was so much wind I settled for something more stable.

Okay so for something different I wanted to pick up a relationship between the do not disconnect and the esc key. Maybe.

Little different today as I picked out a lens that has sat in a bag for 18 months, nice to try it out again. Next door's pool is looking very like it could do with some attention and yet it is delightfully natural with the leaves and bits of tree floating on the surface or lying on the bottom.

Well just about made on time - really scary movie so hence the colours. Day 1

Westcoast

Favourite part of the country

Well it has to be the west coast, it would be great to travel the whole length photographing the people and places.
