20 Something Snaps - Timaru

 Back in January when we visited Timaru, New Zealand, we chose to catch the shuttle bus from the ship to the town. 

As we walked around my camera focused on some of the attractive heritage buildings that were still standing. Some of my images concentrate on the first floors as the ground floors were often ruined by modern advertising and improvements!!

It's a joy to visit a site that the wrecking ball had avoided.

20 Something Snaps - Nelson

 Playing catchup before we set off on our next adventure. 

Sharing a few pics from our meander around in Nelson, New Zealand in January. The crowds had disappeared prior to our late afternoon visit so we had a pleasant time exploring this historic seaside town. We especially enjoyed the heritage buildings along the foreshore and appreciated the opportunities for aquatic activities.

#WeekRforReflections

Over on Bluesky Sheena, a Glaswegian living in Northern Ireland, curates a weekly photographic challenge.

I have been participating in these challenges for a couple of months It gives me an opportunity to dig into my rather large snapshot archive and share a few images to the weekly theme related to a letter of the alphabet.

Last week's theme was #RforReflections. Following are some of the snaps I shared. 

I reflected on four passports that have joined me on my travels and a new one that will accompany me for the next ten years.

There were two shots of my backyard on Lake Macquarie

Four pictures from our 2019 trip to Antarctica




Two landscapes from Nitmiluk (Katherine) Gorge


Two from Villa Adriana near Rome


One pink snap of tourists outside the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain

And and of tourists at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds in New Zealand

Finally four photos from a canal ride down Regents Canal in London
