Some stranger photos for Carmi's Thematic Photographic 261
(hastily, in the middle of marking exams...)
It's me (It is I) who is the stranger in their midst, now I come to think of it :)

Lovely glimpses into other lives - thank you.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, EC.
DeleteAhh, fishing with dad and the family...
ReplyDeleteThose are some of my fondest childhood memories, Alexia.

It's not a tradition in our family - except that my son loves diving and underwater fishing.
DeleteOh my what a lovely place you live in! Your stranger photos are exquisite and should be featured in a travel brochure! Each one so delightful in picturing life and how folks enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteIt is lovely, but it also has less beautiful parts, Karen - as do we all, I guess! :)
DeleteCool pictures. I really like the one of the man and the boy fishing off the pier.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I love the way the boy is sitting calmly on the chilly bin. (I wonder what those are called in the USA? In Australia they are called Eskies)
Delete:)
These photos are wonderful, beautiful interpretation of the theme and of your island home!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Michèle :)
DeleteI have a friend who left England recently to live in Tauranga. Great pictures. Fishing looks so relaxed in such beautiful places.
ReplyDeleteI hope he enjoys living there, Bob. It is the nearest city to us and I go there quite often - probably once every 2 or 3 weeks on average. If I had to live in a city, it would be my second choice. It's small, but has a lovely setting.
DeleteFunny that you mention it: WHO, precisely, is the stranger? Us or them?
ReplyDeleteAmazing question. I don't have the answer, but thanks to you my head is spinning.
Lake Wanaka: could the colors be any more stunning? Wow! Lucky ducks indeed.
Thank you Carmi! Those blues/greens are amazing, aren't they?
