Under the bridge


 I was in Totara North a few days ago and parked down on the path next to the bridge that leads from the main road to the turnoff into that town. As it was the "Blood Moon" this week the tide would've been extra full, usually we have king tides when the moon is full and as I was driving along the road the water was just about up on the tar seal. With alot of mangroves here it would be pretty good fishing I think.

We are looking out on a bit of a grubby day this morning, typical Winter's day with loads of rain. I think it will be pyjamas and hibernating.

Supermoon for 2020




The last 2 nights I have been outside with my camera and the big close up lens trying to get some decent shots of the super moon. l managed to narrow them all down to these 2 photos but I think I did quite well - even the cat was out there with me staring at the sky. I find it interesting being able to see the craters and patterns.



I don't know about you but I feel a bit energized by the moon's energy - it seems quite mysterious. In other news our Covid 19 daily rate of infected people seems to be slowly going down. We've gone from over 80 each day to 70 then 60 and now 50 - hopefully we are turning a corner.

I do have to wonder at some of the reporters intellect though, some of the questions they ask our prime minister and chief health executive leave me shaking my head. Yesterday one of them asked something like "people believe 5g has caused corona virus, what do you say to that". If I could describe the look on their faces I would say they were wide eyed and probably thinking "are you serious".  Now that we are into our 2nd week of lockdown we are halfway there and I am looking forward to this being all over.

It comes and goes


Last night after some particularly heavy rain squalls I attempted to get outside and while lying our our deck set up my camera to experiment trying to get some shots of the moon. Early on I got this one and then tried to do better.


It seems that was my only good one as shortly after that the clouds came back again and the moon seemed to highlight the colours around it.
