I have been going through some of my photo collections and came across some shots I thought (I hope I am not being pretentious) that others might like, too.
Here are some 'watery' ones.
Waihirere Falls, near Hicks Bay.
Waipunga Falls, Napier-Taupo Road. I think someone else might have posted a similar photo somewhere, way back, but I cannot remember who or where.
Coalpit Dam, Naseby, Central Otago
The Blue Lake, St Bathans, Central Otago. The very same spot was once called Kildare Hill. Prospectors found gold there in the 1860s and dug and dug until the hill became a hole! Eventually it became too deep for hydraulic elevators to work satisfactorily and the workings were abandoned - and the hole filled up with water.
