In 2018 during our North Island road trip
we visited the Ohope (southern) end of
The Bay of Plenty
Locals told me this was White Island.
In view of recent activity over there I was
just wondering if you could clarify that for me please.
I was only using a 250 mm lens and the island
appears much closer than the 50 km it is
from Whakatane or Optiki Beaches.
Happy New Year to you Betty and thank
you for visiting my site and introducing yours.

I think this image maybe from Whakatane
which was our base when we visited
Ohope Beach
and Opotiki region.
If I had to guess…
…I would say these were Poppies.

You may have gathered it was a
slow drive along Ohope Beach.

A hundred metres or so along
the road at Ohope Beach…
…and we had to stop again.
They are just called Daisies in our garden.
I guess there is a botanical name.
They seemed quite happy in
September sun on the dunes of

Still at Ohope Beach…
Some more pretty, in my opinion, flowers,
which may also be a pretty weed as
these are also growing
apparently wild on the dunes of…
