Picton Harbour in the late afternoon.
The best time to walk the foreshore and enjoy the scenery.

Top of the South: Nelson to Picton to Blenheim - Cam Theme - 24

This theme shows views from a recent business trip to Nelson, Blenheim and Picton.
For those blog viewers "un-geographed" about New Zealand, these cities and towns are located at the top of the south island.
Time was a crucial factor, but the views I did managed to capture for this PETE'S CAM theme were fortuitous... Enjoy

As usual,

There are 11 pics in this week's "CAM".

Frosty start to the day from my motel in Picton... The Bay Vista Motel at Waikawa.
Great service and an amazing view.

during the night it was minus 3 degrees celcius and this was the result.
