Thought it was time for a new header photo, so I’ve chosen the Moeraki boulders. I took the photo when Peter and I were visiting Dunedin a couple of years ago, and we took a day trip to Moeraki (lunch at Fleur’s Place – yum) and Oamaru.
Speaking of photos, a while ago, I mentioned on this blog how one of my poems (Three Hummingbirds) had appeared in an altered state on another website. After a couple of false starts, I was finally able to make contact with the site’s owner and, happily, we agreed on a solution. I still prefer the full version of the poem, which you can read here, but here is the extract on Tom Davis’ unask photoblog (you’ll need to scroll down a bit). It’s a great idea for a site, I think. Poetry and photography seem to go very well together.
(The bit in the poem about the cup, the wardrobe and the spaghetti is based on a real conversation I had.)
Here are a couple more photos from the trip:
