[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Believe it or not this is the 'negative' of my original composition. I couldn't resist posting in the 'Negative View' Friday theme.

Not only is this a 'negative' composition but also a 'view', one depicting an era in New Zealand long since past, here superbly painted onto one of the walls off the main street in Foxton township. I found this nostagia and fine artistry very appealing.

There are many such wall paintings in Foxton, well worth a stopover when driving to/from Wellington on Highway route 1.

I have posted the workshop fyi. TFV.
