Road trip North..

An early morning road trip
on a cold and foggy morning..



the Waikato River
in winter glory

mists
naked willows
and
swift flowing swollen waters..



a cold sleety rain
in a stinging wind
and the wild west coast breakers roar
along the peninsula

rainbows to tell that
all is well

indeed all is well
for
trips end is a cosy fire
and
homemade muffins
 hot tea
and
sisterly love

  1. Absolutely beautiful photographs, Joan. I love the promise of rainbows, and that misty scene...you can feel the stillness of life. The end of your trip sounds perfect.

  2. No better way to end it all well, Joan, and your pictures are so lovely. The word "atmospheric" comes to mind.

  3. What an atmospheric journey! Oh, I've just glanced above and see that Penny used the very same word! Muffins, hot tea and sisterly love sound a good reward at the end of it.
