Summertime in the South

This view looking northwards from the gardens at Dunedin's famous Larnachs Castle on the southern side of the Otago peninsula.

In the distance is the entrance to Otago Harbour at Taiaroa Head with Aramoana slightly to the left. The township of Portobello in the middle of the frame is a leisurely 20 minute drive from Dunedin. The light blue colour of the water indicates there is a low tide in the harbour.

The photo was taken at about 3:30 pm in late December.
