scenic waitara

We visited a magnolia and succulent garden in Waitara yesterday. Spring is finally on it's way!



These Waitara streetlights are different.

Hollard Gardens

Hollard Gardens is full of wondrous color and beauty. It also has it's moments of strangeness.


Don't ask...I don't have a clue.

tombstones

Fascinating and, at the same time, macabre, a photo session at the New Plymouth cemetery yielded an amazing variety of shots.

Eltham, Taranaki, movie set

Predicament, the fourth book by Ronald Hugh Morrieson, is being filmed partly in the tiny town of Eltham, where the author lived. There has been some work on Bridge Street to make it into a 1930's street and the Town Hall has a set being built in it. Here are a few photos that we snapped the other day when we went through Eltham.
