The beach

In sharp contrast to the image I used yesterday, this pic was taken at the beach near our place. This is Karioitahi Beach today on a misty, windy afternoon. It was invigorating to have a walk and there were even a few hardy kids having a swim.

@julzmaioro - you'll be pleased to know that I had my gumboots on…except that they need to be a bit longer…

[Sam]

Mmm it doesn't look too summery! Your Summer must have disappeared to the same place our Melbourne Summer has gone!

I was thinking it could be a good day to get a dull beach shot.. Looks great and yes I will give that one to you as being a gumboots beach day..

[Wylie]

it does look a little bleak but lovely colours.
