Toi Toi in the sun

I killed two birds with one stone today. Next month's camera club subject must be shot around the Waiuku Estuary. Not being local, I would have had to make a special trip. Fortunately, I had arranged to meet a friend to book our flights to the South Island in December. She lives in the area, so we had a little walk to get some inspiration. At least I will have something if I don't get the chance to return

Interesting photo. I've had to look at it a couple of times . . .

I had to look a couple of times too - the lighting on the toitoi's.

It is extra special on black.

Beautiful capture of the light on the plant. We call that plant or a similar one pampas grass.

@shutterbug49 LOL, it could be pampas, but that's an invasive species here, toi toi or toe toe is a native version. Having had to google the difference I'm none the wiser, I suspect this might be pampas

Really lovely light and nice feel to this image.

Cool capture.
