Autumn at The Stone Store
We were out and about this morning enjoying the fresh Autumn air, not too hot not too cold and I felt this shot expressed what an awesome view this is of the Kerikeri Stone Store, St James Church and the Kemp Mission House.
This is the location where missionaries James Kemp, Francis Hall and John Butler lived, taught and preached as well as farmed and gardened. According to Maori historians, Ngati Miru, the people who first lived in this area were attacked and driven away by a war party of Ngapuhi.
I hope you enjoy your weekend :-)

That is a great photo, the blue sky, and white clouds, the reflections of the sky in the water, the green grass, the dark green trees, the nice trim buildings, and even the splash of red from the roof to the right all works together. Great shot!!
