June 28, 1018 — Cape Saunders, Otago Peninsula, South Island, New Zealand
If you go due south from this spot, you’ll come to Antarctica. If you go due east, you’ll hit South America. Either way, it’s chilly. It wasn’t all that warm right where we were on this winter afternoon, either.
This is sort of how it looked. Kind of.

Ah! Now this is the kind of ‘south’ talk I understand, no translation necessary. Thank you very much Michael, I’m delighted to see this and it’s a stunning image. Deceptively warm appearance for a southern NZ view and it’s very impressionist. My feeling of connection with this scene is intense … it’s beautiful and amazing. Absolutely gorgeous! See, I like it.

Thank you very much, Paula. We went to see the yellow eyed penguins and the New Zealand fur seals. And we did see them. And a lot more.

Color returns to the sea! I see more kinship with Rothko and Minimalism than with the Impressionists.

Yup. The Muse immediately pointed to Rothko. Who was I to say no?

Beautiful scene! I particularly like the little wisps of cloud hanging down, silhouetted against the orange sky. 🙂

It doesn’t necessarily looks as cold it was. I feel like I’m there, trying to look beyond what I actually can see. Lovely, subtle colours!

Thank you very much. Actually at the exact moment, it was neither cold nor warm. It just was.

If you don’t mind I’ll stay right here. Not south or east, just here! Sigh! (and not ‘kind of’ sigh! 😉)

Nice little bits of the setting sun below the horizon hitting some of the clouds’ nether regions. I imagine those thin wisps hanging low were contributing a smidge to the ocean. I look forward to what follows.

Thank you very much. That was exactly it. Yes, the wisps are part of the ongoing ocean contribution project happening all over the world.

Interesting…I like that rosy tint on the clouds halfway down, or up. And that line of deep purple clouds just above the horizon, far, far out. I can get into this one. 🙂
