Certainly a real mix, but great photographs. I like the sunrise and sunset and the `plane walker is good. To visit a childhood haunt and photograph it brings back so many memories. I imagine you can look at your picture and reminisce to early days.

A quality and clever selection that takes us from dawn till dusk. I like them all Keenlearner, and select the second and third as my favourites. Karangahake Gorge, is my winner, what a fantastic location and picture.
You lived in lovely place for 33 years, and seven children, wow, Mrs beachcomber + I have five and people joke to us about the lack of a television set

Thankyou Bill. That Gorge has very special memories of my children growing up...all seven of them exploring the hills and valleys, though they had to be taught to do it with caution, because of the many old mine shafts. It was once a very busy mining village.

Thankyou Michael. Just varied special memories...the wing walker, Mmmm, Dennis enjoyed her too. LOL She certainly drew the crowd and was one very game Lady...you wouldn't catch me up there.

Id have to say number 3 is my favorite. It captures so much activity in that one shot, I love that the water still maintains a "flowing" look the only thing that could have made the photo better is if it weren't so outcast outside, no controlling the weather tho lol great photos all the way around

Great shots Pauline - just love that first one with the clouds the feature here with the colour. Also the sunset is just beautiful as all sunsets like that are. Well captured. Cheers, Bernz
