Default From my sisters garden ..................................

Yesterday it was a miseable day in Wellington in the middle of summer with rain, cold winds and a temp of around 12. Decided to go for an hours drive up the coast to Otaki and called in to see my sister. When about to leave I quickly grabbed my camera and took a few shots of flowers in her garden.

Sounds like Wellington Bernz on a bad summers day, but you have managed to capture some great flowers further up the coast, love the first one, cheers Steve.
