Fisher person by maggiemae

Fisher person

Back to normalcy! Just a memory - all that adulation and privileges. The BMC is over for a year.
Grandson is being delivered to Ocean Beach on the coast just south of Dunedin and we drove slowly along this seaside enjoying these views. I'm not sure if this is a woman or a man?

Three good things:
1. Not a good thing - another Chinese national in a car killed a motorbiker coming back from the BMC! He crossed the double yellow line to pass 4 cars! NZ has to improve somehow - this guy probably didn’t know what these lines mean!
2. Old TV programmes make me smile!
3. In the last 5 days, I didn’t change my outfit - on the outside that is!
THat is sad news. Your shot is very calming, though. Now go change your clothes;-).

Great shot of that silver sand and the action thereon.

Great spot to fish from. Carnage on the roads seems to be a common problem.

Very appropriate for St Andrew's Day, as he was a fisherman. Just love this type of shot.

Almost like their own desert island! So sad about the biker.

The color in this is phenomenal. The entire scene is so restful and relaxing. Looks like a wonderful location to toss in that fishing line. The fisherpeople add a nice note to the scene.

Great capture, composition...neat curved shoreline
November 30th, 2015  
What a lovely spot, nice tones too.
November 30th, 2015  
A beautiful shot. The composition is so good, you look from the white sand back to more white sand and sea. The fishing people add to the scene. Fav. Sad news about the motorcyclist after such a great event.

Lovely shot.. and bad news about the biker .. I thought of you when I heard..
November 30th, 2015  
that is just a most excellent shot, maggiemae. it's beautiful!
November 30th, 2015  
@jennywren I really shot this for the white sand - not often seen at NZ beaches! Thanks for your comment, Jen!

@julzmaioro There always seems to be one fatality, Julia - I suppose there are literally thousands of bikers coming or going so thats probably not bad statistics - not good for the one person's family though!

Lovely white sand and sea. The fishermen ste the scene nicely. What a lovely place for someone to have their home, slightly hidden in the trees but o er looking this great beach. I love motorbikes but lost a few friends from them in my youth. People just don't look out for them, so sad

Lovely sand and sea picture. Fav.
Bad news about the motorbiker.
November 30th, 2015  
Lovely blue sky and sea and those beautiful white sands -- one can only dream while sitting by the fire in a dark and murky UK !!

Such a glorious pics of coast line, your beaches sure are amazing! Fave as always. You must be glad to be home for a while now......traveling done for a bit hopefully! It's been fB fir us seeing all these beautiful places. Sad about that young man, I think I read somewhere thaypt there are quite a few fatalities among young foreign drivers on NZ roads. Electric bike time now!!
November 30th, 2015  
@happypat There are so many accidents caused by foreign drivers crossing over the centre line, Pat. Its a major problem. Some of these Chinese nationals have got their licence in China by just signing a bit of paper!
November 30th, 2015  
@maggiemae yes I seemed to remember reading exactly that......they should take a NZ driving test! Kill themselves & a danger to others!
November 30th, 2015  
Wonderful capture.
November 30th, 2015  
What a beautiful scene! The people fishing really make the shot! So sad about the biker! They must do something about the Chinese drivers!
November 30th, 2015  
@amandal lol!!!

A truly beautiful beach scene! Lovely to catch after all your excitement. Something to be said for not seeing the same people to days in a row I guess, eh?!
November 30th, 2015  
@grammyn I didn't care - anyway Bikers are not the sort of people that notice what you are wearing!
November 30th, 2015  
Beautiful capture

Fabulous scene.

Its beautiful and looks like the kind of place i would like to stay awhile. We have bikers killed I think everyday driving like rockets.
December 1st, 2015  
Love that view and your shot, Maggiemae. Pity about the accident. Some three years ago I was hit by a car while I was crossing the road on a zebra crossing. Luckily I wasn't hurt. The driver said he had been distracted by somebody who he thought was going to cross a few metres away.

Wonderful Capture Maggiemae :)
December 1st, 2015  
Looks like their own little island
December 1st, 2015  
doesn't matter if they catch anything or not in this beautiful spot.
December 1st, 2015  
This is very nice composition of a wonderful scene ...The sand is so bright and white!
December 1st, 2015  
wonderful capture! wow
fav
December 1st, 2015  
Lovely capture and it looks like they have one on the hook the way the rod is bending. Your 3 comment are both sad and funny, I change my underwear every month whether they need it or not (Wink).
December 1st, 2015  
looks serene.
December 1st, 2015  
Beautiful capture
December 1st, 2015  
@ladymagpie I find it saves water, electricity and time, Heather!
December 1st, 2015  
Brilliant shot looking across the bay.
December 1st, 2015  
I wonder if they caught anything. Beautiful photo!
December 1st, 2015  
Is that a fish on the end of that line? Seems bent so maybe. Five days? love it - means you're out and about having an adventure!
December 2nd, 2015  
A wonderful capture! Was this a drive by? Almost looks like they are on an island. And yes, I agree with Kim looks like "fish on"!! Always good to have clean undies!! hahahahaha!!!
