http://headoftheharbour.blogspot.com/2012/10/a-grand-old-lady.html
Head of the Harbour. A place to ponder. Monday, October 8, 2012. A grand old Lady. Tug Lyttelton dockside and firing up. Here is a little bit about the tug from her website http:/ www.tuglyttelton.co.nz/. The tug Lyttelton and her engines were built in Scotland in 1907 by. I can say, wholeheartedly, that she is, indeed, a great lady. The interior detailing of the Lyttelton is just stunning, all lovely wood and gleaming brass. Others were out enjoying the excellent sailing weather. But good on them :-).

Head of the Harbour. A place to ponder. Monday, May 13, 2013. At Cass, heading for the hills. Train about to enter Otira tunnel. Now for a rubber fix. May 14, 2013 at 6:01 PM. What a fantastic shot of the black centre line creeping across the single point perspective bridge! Glorious day and no one in sight . Thankyou for sharing :). May 15, 2013 at 5:09 AM. The shadows were a real feature. I forgot to add we saw a trout and lots of salmon - a guy pointed then out just above the Mt White Bridge. I live i...

Head of the Harbour: City art...
http://headoftheharbour.blogspot.com/2013/04/city-art.html
Head of the Harbour. A place to ponder. Sunday, April 28, 2013. Yesterday I retraced my last post's inner city circuit with friend Elaine. This time it was a Saturday and there were more people about, more voices, more movement. In a CBD that has been populated mosty by demolition workers for over two years, this was such a great thing. Made by Mel, Reuben and Sasha from Governors Bay. Love the hair! By Rata. I just love the elegant movement in this one. Reflection in the sky walk . Mike Hewson again.

http://headoftheharbour.blogspot.com/2013/04/a-tale-of-two-cities.html
Head of the Harbour. A place to ponder. Friday, April 19, 2013. A tale of two cities. My cousin Fleur and I have just spent several days in Nelson making contact with our Harris relatives and learning more about our great and great, great grandparents. A very productive, happy time. Did anything surprise or shock me? My reaction remains one of disbelief. It still seems unreal. This puzzles me - when the evidence of the destruction wrought by quakes and subsequent demolition is so tangible. It...A favouri...

Head of the Harbour. A place to ponder. Sunday, June 9, 2013. A good workout for the horse I decided as I trudged along a stony ridge towards the Lake Forsyth ( Te Roto o Wairewa. Outlet, the loneliness of the spot accentuated by a single figure. There were a few hardy fisherfolk. And a shag who came in to dry his wings and preen. A bank of cloud rolled in from the south and suddenly it was very cold. I returned thankfully to the car with a pocketful of stones and a nice driftwood dragon. So beautiful in...

Head of the Harbour: Working from home...
http://headoftheharbour.blogspot.com/2012/10/working-from-home.html
Head of the Harbour. A place to ponder. Sunday, October 14, 2012. The past few weeks as I have sat on the sofa working, I have been able to look out the living room window, past the frame of pendulous lavender wisteria, to two Kakabeaks (Kōwhai ngutukākā). That cover a trellis. The Kakabeak is not a long-lived plant and these two are past their used-by date, yet they have produced these glorious, jewel-like flowers that have glowed in all weathers.

Head of the Harbour: 'Bird of the year'...
http://headoftheharbour.blogspot.com/2012/09/bird-of-year.html
Head of the Harbour. A place to ponder. Thursday, September 20, 2012. Bird of the year'. When I feel a little unsettled or disgruntled about not being in Europe, it's things like Forest and Bird's Bird of the Year. Campaign that remind me what a wonderful and special place New Zealand is. I like it that that the whole country is encouraged to cast a vote here http:/ www.birdoftheyear.org.nz/. A few photos from the current campaign. Labels: Bird of the Year. September 20, 2012 at 8:36 AM. Yes please blog ...
