The perfect autumn day

I saw loads of fantastic scenery today as we drove to Tirau.
Hard to find somewhere to stop at the side of the road especially when you aren't driving!!
The sky was blue, the sun was shining & there was no wind....the perfect autumn day in the Southern Hemisphere.

I bought some cards & a butter knife!!

Lots in this shot .. the cows wathcing you go by, the colourful haybales, the moon... and beautiful clear sky's after all the rain and thunder storms of the last few day's ... great place to do a spot of window shopping as well..

@julzmaioro There were better views than this as you would know Julz but it's just stopping in time to get the right place! This was taken just outside Matamata on the road where all the racing studs are. The road was wide so better place to stop. We did some shopping in Tirau.

@happypat thought they looked like the horse stud fences..

So nice you had good weather for your sightseeing.

[Sue Cooper]

A wonderful capture, Pat and I love the way you’ve got the moon in the photo.

[Babs]

Looks like you have found perfect weather for your holiday.

Looks delightful, perfect holiday weather. It's kicking up into the high 20's here with thunderstorms, so I think you have it better there now!

[Lou Ann]

A peaceful scene, I’m sure you are still adjusting to the time change, nice to get out and enjoy the day.

[Rick Schies]

Nice deep colors. I didn't realize you were opposite seasons from us.

@digitalrn I'm in NZ at the moment Rick, visiting family, coming into winter here! I have left lovely sunny weather at home!

[Pat Knowles]

@casablanca A little bit of heat would be nice though! Actually in the sun during the day it's warm. The high twenties!! 😵

[Maggiemae]

What @julzmaioro says! I'm always reluctant to ask the driver to stop - generally going so fast so that by the time he stops, we are well past any photographic scene!

[Lois]

Beautiful landscape!

[Pat Knowles]

@maggiemae Exactly maggie!

Hello! I am putting this here as I am after a favour. I would like to send Charlie a Moose from Sweden...May I send it to you or may I send it to Charlie direct? I need an address for it first though.

[Pat Knowles]

@huvesaker Wow Boo he would absolutely love that, thank you so much for thinking of him. An update on my today photo. Not out of the woods yet but he is doing well. My email address is [e-mail]
If you want to email me I will send you their address or you could send it to me which ever you prefer. So kind of you, I bet he hasn't got a moose! Just realised you will have the update as you donated! Xxx
