Night scene in Oamaru by maggiemae

Night scene in Oamaru

The sunset created its own beauty with a weather front coming through then I had an arty event to front up to in town.
We in Oamaru have wonderful buildings and one of these two is our Art Gallery. The other is the ANZ bank.
Three good things:
1. Coped with the sunset just as my battery went flat in the camera - its Ok.
2. 'Arty' was sketching the human body and honestly, I hope I don’t end up like what’s on these sketches!
3. Very nice red wine and nibbles went with the event but I think more people came to have a chat and be seen plus the wine and nibbles, than to look at the artwork! Not me!
A lovely capture of this building fav

I can vouch for your wonderful town, such magnificent regal buildings made of that girgoeus stone. Looks even more impressive by night. All those pillars! Sounds a very good night you had!

You have such a way of putting things Maggie Mae - Im often amused (I hope that is ok). Very grand buildings in the night lights.

Wonderful architecture, great lighting. Good your battery held out long enough to get the shot/s.

@golftragic I found out about the battery when I was taking sunset shots before and couldn't work out why it wouldn't download to the computer!

@maggiemae Batteries can be a real pest. I took my camera downtown the other day only to discover the battery was dead flat. Oh joy, oh happiness.

@golftragic No spare in the camera bag, obviously! I always have one fully charged one to rely on. But when changing them, can miss some good opportunities!

@grammyn Actually most of the sketches of humans were nude, Katy! And not exactly sylph like!

I can confirm the buildings in Oamaru are awesome - must be some of the best (or THE best) in NZ!
