Karekare. The Early Setting. The sun didn't actually set till about another hour and a half after taking this set, but it was the last time we saw the sun that day due to the storm clouds. I took this a fair while ago, and its actually probably the last time I used my 18-55mm kit lens. Most of the other shots that day are really soft because of the crappy filter I had on it, I took it off for this one though.

As far as Anaximander could see. Well worth the drive to get this. Had to convince my Dad, who was driving, to go the final leg around this gorge to reach here. Nearly offered him blinders. Not that I leapt up to take over the driving duties mind.

Kawakawa: I'm reduced to one word titles now. Taken after packing up the kayaks, it was the first day back out on the water after winter. You don't realise how much you miss it then its just well....I dunno it feels good to be out on the water at any rate : ) Many thanks to the seagull for coming in from the right. Cheque is in the mail pal.
