Lovely Lilith! It all looks so inviting. I love the last two light and water pictures especially - you've created liquid paua : )
-
So beautiful. So very beautiful I've got springy tears in my eyes. Lovely work Lilith, and Merry Christmas to you, Jackson and all the Capture photographers, writers, and commenters - you're an awesome crew.
-
Thanks Lilith, those are a treat for the eyeballs.
Congratulations ChrisW, love your stuff. -
Hebe,
Wonderful captures Lilith. Liquid paua indeed. And the sand/water shots glow. These made me feel summer! Does it ever get really warm down there? Is it the Brighton area?
-
Thanks all! It can be very cold down there, but also scorching. It's very changeable, with showers passing through unpredictably. There are lots of rainbows!

The day I took those rockpool photos, my toes were almost blue with cold. But not as blue as the jellyfish. :-)

Lovely pics, Lillith, and looking forward to having you here – you are missing such a lot! :-)
We have had a lot of chilly wind from the south lately. The misty streaks of blowing sand can be seen in this photo. I walked with my back to it – most refreshing in every sense.
-
On that same walk I took a number of photos of patterns in the sand. As I approached this one I wondered if it was a sheeps skull, but no, it's the remains of a bull-kelp hold-fast.

The beach was deliciously empty of people. Just a few footprints to keep me company...
-
… And a scattering of birds … Perfect!

Thank you Leigh! Me too.

I think kelp holdfasts are amazing – gripping so strongly to the rock that even the worst storms seldom dislodge them. And taking the weight of a human being is no challenge at all!

Dear Nelson PA'rs; I will be in Nelson for the new few days as father-in-law is in steep decline and meeting up a drink at a local bar would be a welcome relief from the joys of the rest home. Just email me at lealand@waikato.ac.nz if it is possible or desired.

Congratulations Chris W! Those were indeed some awesome photos.

Thank yous one and all on my Travels Without A Map photos - I guess that would be Jackson, Nora and Lilith especially. No map needed cos it was so close to home!
Wonderful prize, to be much and long appreciated, thanks again.

Pohutukawa shadow.
Headland.

Beach houses are of course a coastal feature.
This one spotted yesterday. Little overdone, maybe.

A rather different seaside environment. Diggers lined up on the causeway of the Northwestern motorway.

Nice!
Staying on the motorway theme – concrete waves
And double your afternoon sun
