A good month spent with other creative people 'doing our thing'.
I took this shot at the Historic Village on week one of a short Photography course.
As a diversion from renovation, this is day one on Toi Ohomai photography course. Taken from the camera screen of another novice. Oohh wait for the genius to appear. Who else engages in the pressure of new stuff?
Picture of my Cherry Laurel in flower. Let the wind blow alright, no time for a sea shanty today here in Tauranga the gusts are really strong.
The Strand, Tauranga, all dressed up for summer shapes display. A nice midday walk in the strong wind today.
My life is part humour, part roses, part thorns. Post TA the beauty of nature continues to call.

Post TA the beauty of nature continues to call. A young tui chirping warning tunes.  Spring is on its way in Katikati this morning. 18°C lovely. A walk to and up to the top of Sentinel Rock this morning. Past the giant kauri, ferns, birds, nikau palms, and bush. Met some over 70's trampers who encouraged me to climb it with them. The rope makes the steep rock banks easier! A beautiful winter days walk up to the Otanewainuku summit and then to the falls.
