Night

 

One night after work I stopped on one of the main streets in town to take a night shot. Not many shops except for supermarkets are open at this time of day, hence no one around. The lowest temperature we've had at night so far is 5 degrees celsius but it will get down to -2 in the next 3 months at night. Winter coughs and colds are starting to do the rounds, lucky I got my whooping cough vaccine last year as the 90 day cough is part of that strain apparently. Anyone else find since having covid your immunity is almost non existent now like us?

Waiting, waiting, waiting. We waited in Wellington to cross the Cook Strait on the Inter-Island Ferry and ended up waiting in line for 4 hours in the dark in our cars, I think there were alot of frustrated people. Finally got on there at 9pm and arrived in Picton just after midnight. My 2 adult children got seasick on the ferry and spent most of the time in the bathroom, B and I just about fell asleep in our seats.

Spring sunsets and a full moon over Otumoetai

Last night while loading my car with groceries after food shopping I spotted the full moon in the sky above the carpark, since i take my camera everywere I go I quickly snapped a photo of the sky and the surrouding area. Hope your week has been good...for more Skywatch Fridays click here :-)

Stormy colours of Wellsford

This is what a stormy winter's afternoon looks like through the windows of the kitchen at work. Very orange skies tinged with gray & black. If only I'd been at home hibernating - then it would've been perfect!
