Still waters by maggiemae

Still waters

A lovely warm day with little wind encouraged us to go down to the harbour and have a coffee for morning tea. Coffee costs $4.25 to $4.50 now - frightful price. Think what you could buy for $9 a few years ago! British 4.60Pounds, US$7.30!

Three good things:
1. Lovely bike ride down to the Harbour and back.
2. Sat outside at 8.30pm and read.
3. A comet is in the sky somewhere but you have to wait until it is dark to see it!
I love the colours

Lovely shot. If it's any consolation we pay more for coffee and don't have the pleasure of such a beautiful view.

I love that high key effect with those lovely pops of colour .
January 4th, 2015  
Love the high key effect -- it looks rather like a pen and wash painting !

Glad you enjoyed the day and nice view you shared, UK prices extreme also and tea is hot water a slash of milk and a tea bag. ££££

Fave maggimae, I like the way the boats are the main subject & the water merges into the edges. That coffee does sound rather dear but everything is going up! Love the little red buoy bobbing about!

Lovely tranquil scene! Whenever we go for a drive we take a flask of coffee with us so that we can find somewhere with a view to have our coffee.

Wow, perfect title for this one also.

Love the high key processing - makes the boats look like they are floating - in space, I know they are supposed to float on water ;-)

Fav. This is so beautiful in high key. A masterpiece.
January 5th, 2015  
Fabulous high key. Lovely pops of colours. Great processing, Maggie.
January 5th, 2015  
Oh how lovely .... instant fav on this masterpiece. How pretty that would look framed. A cup of coffee (with refills) is about $3.50 here. Crazy!!
January 5th, 2015  
Beautiful shot - love the horizontal and vertical lines. Coffee at that price - Woh.
January 5th, 2015  
Instant Fav. love the high key note and the colours are superb. I guess our coffee or tea is quite reasonable compared to what I read on here. we're paying below two Canadian dollars for a large coffee or tea. specialty coffees are not that much more. with so many different types of coffee shops around the competition keep the prices reasonable.

January 7th, 2015  
Love the coloured boats against the bright white water. This does have a high key look. Superb composition and great visual impact.
January 8th, 2015  
Wonderful high key shot, and a great view!! Seriously, thought, I cannot believe coffee costs that much down there! I mean, sometimes a double cappuccino or latte can be close that, but not regular coffee....oh, well. I will have to keep that in mind when we visit NZ!
