Continue reading →: Mountains at SunsetThe mountains tonight as the sun was setting. We had a norwester wind today, which usually gives us interesting sunsets at night. No rain or thunder or lightening today!

Continue reading →: LighteningWe had a lightning storm tonight – it went on for ages and was rather spectacular. I just watched it for a while and then thought I should try and get some photos. This was the best one I got, but I’ll be more prepared next time and the tripod…

Continue reading →: Shabby Chic Market is Back!Shabby Chic is back! I love it. And so apparently do many other Christchurch women (and a few brave men). It’s a crush some days – but makes it all the more of a challenge to snaffle up those bargains. Love the gerberas! Lastly, here are my purchases from the…

Continue reading →: Blossom Tree in HeathcoteIt’s nearly spring, and the blossoms are out in force around the city (at least the early blossoms). I love spring – and it’s wonderful how some trees flower earlier than others so it spreads out over the months for us.

Continue reading →: A Walk down Madras Street and Moorhouse AvenueI went looking for photos tonight. I often get photos as I go about my day, but this evening the light was lovely and I decided it was good enough to go out and look for an interesting subject. I ended up on Madras Street and as I looked down…

Continue reading →: Barrington St OverbridgeThe Barrington St overbridge opened on Saturday. I drove over it on Sunday – and was on it before I realised ‘oh wow I’m on the new road!”. Those road engineers sure know how to seamlessly integrate a new road into an old one. Eventually the road will go all…

There was rather a lot to look at and photograph – lots of beautiful things. And I came home with a plate (so hard to resist but it was…
