Found this yesterday - had been sitting on my computer... alone and forgotten. Much like me really!! Took this in Autumn last year at the Brancott Valley Estate on one of Marlborough's warm blue sky days. I love the view, the colours, the lines and the shadows. One of my favourite places to visit - they not only have great wine, but their coffee is to die for too!

The Weta - one of New Zealands sexiest native insects. Most people scream and run for the hills, but I find them fascinating as they are so ugly.

I never thought sunsets like these were real, until I experienced them myself. Always thought that photohop had played a part. This is straight out of the camera. That huge ball of orange seemingly melting into the sea. Amazing!
