Description
This rural morning scene is so special to me. My mother grew up around this area, and now when I visit it brings back so many happy memories, and much sadness for my mother passed away over 20yrs ago now. This is where our ancestors settled from Scotland in 1853 - and still to this day the Highland Games commence every New Years Day and draw competitors from all over the world. Mostly a farming community, the population swells dramatically during the summer months because of the beautiful beaches (Waipu Cove and Langs Beach � which is my favourite place on the planet) and of course the Waipu River which is seen here. The river winds majestically along the coast through farmlands and property, past the famous cemetery directly into the Pacific Ocean. Because of the history, I've tried to create a sense of era, a sense of time and of memories.
