Flinders Island, March ‘25 (#29 in series: living on the edge + musical bonus)

 

 

As highlighted in this series, Flnders Island’s shorelines are both beautiful and very demanding – especially for plants.

I imagine that not a few visitors perceive a place such as the one pictured above as “unspoilt”, “wild”, “pristine”.

The above adjectives are “wildly” inaccurate!

(I took the photo on the southern half of Flinders Island’s west coast at 10.08 am on March 2025. I love such places, where things “hard” and “soft”, “massive” and “petite”, “inanimate” and “living” all coexist, near terra firma’s edge)

Ocean beach on a benign day (#68 in “a shining moment” series)

 

Near the northern tip of New Zealand’s North Island is the so-called Ninety Mile Beach”.

It is no less magnificent for its actual length –  “only” 88 kilometres.

Musically, today offers a sublime, spacious, shore-inspired instrumental solo, plus an also-spare song which depicts a lovely state of mind:

lost in a seagull’s flight
