[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Maraetai Beach
My contribution to our TL friends from the U.S.A happy Independence Day.

This image has loads of Post Processing and It's just too much to remember. I hope you enjoy the view anyway.

The Maori name "Maraetai" means "meeting place by the sea". The settlement has been well named for the meaning still holds true today as many families flock to this beautiful part of The Pohutukawa Coast to swim, picnic, fish, or just walk the beaches.

The photo seems to jump out at us Lindsay.
The sky looks awesome with those clouds and blue sky, but I feel the land (is it Waiheke?) is a bit dark (IMO)
It is a well composed image, especially with the man on the wharf and the people in the dingy.
Very well done
Janice

OOPs - I'll be back tonight!
