Wishing you all a Happy Easter!
I hope you enjoy this shot of flax (harakeke in its Māori transliteration from English) at this time of hope and renewal, however you celebrate it.
Thanks again for stopping by!

In New Zealand, as Christmas approaches, the red flowers of flax bushes are a more than adequate substitute for holly berries.
Not a great deal of snow around though…

Flax & Islet
Muriwai, NZ
View though flax stalks to a rocky islet at Muriwai, on the west coast out from Auckland.
We were there three days ago to visit friends who live at this beautiful spot.
Before catching up, we took in the spectacular coastal views, on a day which was distinctly un-summery.
The Tasman Sea was at its moody, relentless best, surf pounding the lonely islet; the flax stalks waving and bending in the wind.
It felt like a Christmas cleanser!
