‘A Stretch Of Clouds’
One of those perfect early autumn days where the clouds stretch across still skies, full of possibility. The scene is an iconic Auckland one, looking towards the volcanic island of Rangitoto from the mainland (at St.Heliers).

‘Seaside Scene IV’
…sit, swim, sail…
‘No View Though’
Lovely May morning by the ponds in Auckland Domain, made all the sweeter after spending a few days in hospital (right next door) and just being discharged. Felt like freedom…
Birdling’s Flat, Canterbury, NZ (March 2021)
‘Water Mosaic’
The play of light on water – a dappled, or fractured, view – depends on your mood I suppose…
‘Cutting Edge’
…slice the sky…
‘Sky Wires’
…dividing the heavens…
‘High Rise’
‘Creekside Moods’
‘Blue And Louvred’
…for the down and shuttered times that come, and must also pass…

‘Onion Dome Views’
Two views of the onion dome atop the band rotunda in Auckland Domain.
You may as well have an onion quote too:
” Life is like an onion. You peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep.”
– Carl Sandberg
‘An Eye To The Sky’
…skylight view up and beyond – a little light is better than none at all…
‘Looking Down The Lane’
… a favourite Auckland view…
‘A Dead End, A Spiral Up’
When you get to the seeming end of things, what will take you beyond ?
‘Closed In (Private Hell)’
A cheerless view, I know.
Mesh, razor wire, a drainpipe and a narrow brick chasm.
I post it as a reminder to myself of what was, and can so easily be again.
The place where everything is closed in, a hell.
May you escape, or avoid, that place, as the case may be.
Peace, Andy L.
