Lake Ellesmere (Te Waihora)

Lake Ellesmere is one of those places I go to when I want to think and observe the changes in the light. One moment, it could be calm and beautiful, and the next moment, it's reflecting storm clouds above it. It's the most beautiful lake, with a hidden history. On one side, the brown Port Hills, and on the other, the sea extends to the south to Canterbury Plains. There is an intimacy to Lake Ellesmere that reminds me of much smaller places where you can sit, reflect, see the colours, and feel the presence of the water.
