Opunake Mornings 18/03/2012

 Must confess that this first shot is from last night's sunset across Mt Taranaki. The clouds just wrapped the peak in such a delicately coloured night time blanket it was irresistible.

 Lovely warm morning, very calm at Middleton Bay. No breeze yet although this was taken around 7.30, we are really noticing the days drawing in now.












Towards New Plymouth it is certainly looking ideal for the fishermen who are already out and launching at Middleton Bay.

Full view of the mountain and ranges at this stage.

 Gentle break on the reef looking towards Wellington.












Opunake Main Beach waking up - no action for any surfers this morning though.



























 Wakey wakey Mountains.
