Wordless Wednesday….

Sunset Glows ….wpc

Sunsets with lots of clouds often glow…..

Shadows…weekly photo challenge

Evening shadows overlooking a bay.

weekly photo challenge – vivid

I was lucky enough to see this on the way back to Dunedin from the mountains….this is what I call vivid!

It was in my eyes a stunningly vivid sunset : ))

Gili Air island paradise

an island sunset ….

a beautiful place to rest our heads….

Another adventure in paradise ….. this time with a friend. We arrived by fastboat from Padangbai Bali…the trip was smooth and untroubled. Arriving on Gili we were greeted with many changes everywhere more hotels, swimming pools, places to eat, coffee barugas. Astaga…. I hope there is some thought for the environment in all of this development.

at a small tucked away homestay….a beautiful verdant garden and saltwater pool to float in.

A journey to the bottom of the sea breathing smoothly in and out….many small vibrant fish, a herd of humphead
ed parrot fish and some large and exotic turtles…..wish I had more photos to show….

it was a wonderful few days.

Another day at the beach as the sun sets….

It had been extreme heat for most of the day……early evening I wandered down to the beach to catch the last rays of sun….the beach deserted apart from the odd seagull looking for an evening snack. The wind was now onshore,  cool and refreshing. I was eager to try out my new camera which I have yet to make friends with.
Still…. it was a beautiful evening and here is some of what I saw…..

Like gazing into the infinite undisturbed by  humans…..
