Mist like this usually rolls in from the sea but not this one - its actually moving across and over the sand dunes and flowing out across the water. What makes it special for me is the way the late afternoon sunlight is streaming through the mist as it glides across the beach. It was a truly beautiful and memorable sight.
Using my digital camera I hope to convey in this journal the wonder and joy of living in a beautiful and mysterious land called New Zealand.

Blackhead Beach in Daylight
There are a number of sunset photos of this beach in my photostream on flickr that I thought it was about time there was a photo of Blackhead beach in daylight. This is one of Dunedins longest beaches. The name comes from the headland and quarry behind the camera where black basalt rock is extracted. I think the rock is crushed and used for road construction. The town of Brighton lies south of Dunedin in the distance.
