17 Apr 2021 visit to Piwhane / Spirits Bay. From the wiki: โ€œThe bay is considered a sacred place in Mฤori culture as according to local legend, it is the location where spirits of the dead gather to depart from this world to travel to their ancestral home (or afterlife) from a large old pลhutukawa tree above the bay.โ€ Looking inward from near the waterโ€™s edge, one is presented with quite the view. In the distance, Maungapiko Hill quietly shoulders a dark robe of verdant forest. A blue sky carries fluffy clouds. A pristine white sand beach holds a weathered, vantablack-like volcanic rock in its broad palm. The winds off the Pacific must have been particularly strong as one can see the path left behind by the rock as it moved over the sand. According to the photoโ€™s timestamp, itโ€™s 3.25pm. Yes, letโ€™s linger, for thereโ€™s just a bit of stronger daylight the trek back to the faraway car park. In the here and now, I just asked myself if I remembered picking up this rock to feel the weight and texture. Immediately I knew I hadnโ€™t (which is highly unusual for me, an avid rockhound). Thatโ€™d be right, though, as one of the names of this highly-sacred locale is โ€œKapowairuaโ€ โ€“ โ€œcatch the spiritโ€. I came to commune with Spirit, to walk softly, to speak with me and mine. Inspired by the various prompts and sitting with this photo, I ruminate upon our impermanence. A volcano that is now a rock, and one day will be a pebble, as only time and tide can do. Humbled, I wrote: ๐‘ก๐‘œ ๐‘๐‘’๐‘๐‘œ๐‘š๐‘’ ๐‘Ž ๐‘๐‘’๐‘๐‘๐‘™๐‘’ - ๐‘ก๐‘–๐‘š๐‘’ ๐‘Ž๐‘›๐‘‘ ๐‘ก๐‘–๐‘‘๐‘’ #Scape #beachscape #mobilephotography #photography #PaintbyWords | #pebble #haiku

This is Nymeria. She is demonstrating the rare compact zoomies. Ideal for situations where you don't have much room, but still must zoom. 13/10 (TT: ouruntamedtale)
