Merry Christmas my friends!

It's Christmas eve here in New Zealand, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to say "Merry Christmas" and "Happy New Year" from this side of the world. I hope you have a safe and enjoyable time as we celebrate another Christmas season.

A couple of pictures - sunset and my rather dodgy looking excuse for a Christmas Tree :-)

Enjoy!

Te Kopahou Reserve across to the South Island

Here are two pictures that I took 2 evenings ago from Te Kopahou Reserve, looking across to the South Island. If I had been [literally!] 5 minutes earlier, I would have got a much better shot of the setting run, but what I did get looks OK.

I like the combination of a red, clear, sky, and the fog sitting on the water in the distance.

The second image is zoomed in on an Interislander Ferry making the crossing to Picton.

Evans Bay scenary

I popped down to Evans Bay in Wellington on Saturday. The main reason was trying to photograph some aerobatics being performed [that didn't work out], but I did get a nice photo of Evans Bay looking north. On the left side of the photo is part of Mount Victoria, on the right is the northern end of the Miramar Peninsula.

As you can see it was another stunning Wellington day weather-wise!

Other photos are a seagull that was hanging around [perhaps creation's perfect scavenger?? :-)], and finally a photo taken that evening at home looking south. I was most interested in the cloud formation which had been visible for around half the day.

Bohemian Rhapsody... by the Muppets!!!

Probably very little introduction needed for the Muppets... if you're a fan, you'll definitely like this. If you're not a fan, you may enjoy it anyway :-)

Enjoy!
