Motukiekie Beach is a fantastic location on the West Coast of New Zealand.
After a "Blazing Kaikoura" sunrise on the east coast I headed over to the West Coast for sunset.
This spot is only accessible at low tide and even during the very low tide on this particular evening the swell would regularly wash over this scene. This regular water movement however provided another layer to the seastack / starfish combination that the area is famous for!
The growing popularity of Motukiekie for serious landscape photographers is largely off the back of some fantastic images created by Kah Kit Yoong here a couple of years ago. If you haven't already make sure you check out his Flickr stream at www.flickr.com/photos/kahkityoong/ - you won't regret it!
The above image was taken well after the sun had set, providing a wonderful atmosphere including the sea mist in the background. My legs were soaked from the numerous swells and on the walk back down the beach it started to rain. This just added to the adventure at a remarkable location!
As always I would love to hear any thoughts / comments that you may have.

CSX I007 is pictured headed west toward Russia, OH on the Indianapolis Line Subdivision with the CSX Baltimore & Ohio and Western Maryland heritage units. 50 years ago, this was probably a common sight since the B&O and WM were both part of Chessie System. It was a treat to catch two heritage units paired together.

At first glance this captivating scene peering through wispy clouds and down onto a dune field is reminiscent of a satellite view of one of Earth’s deserts, but this is in fact a beautiful landscape on Mars.
This spectacular dune field sits in the centre of Lomonosov crater, deep in the southern hemisphere of Mars (65ºS, 351ºE). It was imaged by the CaSSIS camera on the ESA-Roscosmos ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) on 2 December, 2020.
At this time, southern summer was coming to an end on Mars. The image was taken as part of a campaign to track the evolution of the dune field through the end of summer and beginning of autumn, when frost would start covering the surface in this region. The crests of the dunes indicate the average wind direction, in this case, the wind comes predominantly from the bottom left to the top right of the image. To the right, darker, more basaltic rich sediments are visible. It is also in the right of the image that bright white clouds stand out against the darker sediments on the ground.
The image was released on the occasion of the five year launch anniversary of the mission.
The first five years
TGO launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on 14 March 2016, arriving at Mars seven months later. It spent several months aerobraking – using the top of the planet’s atmosphere to create drag and slow down – to became the first ESA spacecraft used to enter its science orbit in this way.
The mission began full science operations in April 2018 with its suite of four instruments. TGO’s NOMAD and ACS spectrometers are designed to provide the best ever inventory of the planet’s atmospheric gases yet, and have already detected a new gas – hydrogen chloride – for the first time, as well as studying processes linked to atmospheric water escape in greater detail than ever. TGO is also adding to the lively debate surrounding the presence of methane on the planet by revealing a surprising lack of the mysterious gas. The FREND instrument is mapping the distribution of hydrogen in the uppermost metre of the planet’s surface, creating a detailed map of possible water-rich oases, relevant for future exploration of Mars. The CaSSIS camera has captured more than 20 000 images documenting the surface and complementing the data returned by the other instruments to help characterise features that may be related to trace gas sources.
TGO also provides routine data relay for NASA’s landers and rovers: Opportunity (until its end of operations in 2018), Curiosity, Insight and Perseverance. It will also be the communication link for the second ESA-Roscosmos ExoMars mission, comprising the Rosalind Franklin rover and Kazachok platform, when it arrives on Mars in 2023.

I was surprised to see all of this action in the sky last night, the night sky has been quite 'uneventful' this entire winter.
This eagle came in very close, filling the frame. Very high dynamic though given the clouds and lighting. I exposed this 1 stop over, and probably could have gone another half stop. The noise in the dark areas is pretty low though, and I could eliminate it if I darkened it a hair more, but I like the details here when not zoomed in. At full resolution you start to perceive a little noise ... pixel peering.
The BEST sunrise that I have seen this year.. and I have seen a few lately.

I took a quick time lapse video of the clouds today. I thought it was really neat how they were dynamically created and dissipated.

When I saw this I wondered who was having sewer problems and then it dawned on me that I have a backflow valve on my sprinkler system and I pay the water people yearly for it to be checked.. I never saw anybody but then I was more interested in getting the picture than looking for people... LOL!! Happy Truck Thursday, Everybody!!!!!!
