Shag "Pile"

The artist formerly known as "Shag Rock"

Christchurch, South Island, NZ

 

One of the casualties of the Feb 22nd earthquake. Shag Rock was a very distinctive local icon and much loved by many. Having said that, I actually quite like the new form but don't know how long that'll stay - it's a bit fragile still!

 

For photos of the original Shag Rock, plus the new Shag Pile (also known as Shag Reef or Shagged Rock), please view this group I set up here:

Anyone welcome to join and share your pics!

 

This photograph is being published in the upcoming April issue of Avenues magazine (published by the Christchurch Press).
