Akaroa day one on our two day trip away to escape from the earthquake repair/paint on our house. May 22, 2012.
Akaroa is a village on Banks Peninsula in the Canterbury region of the South Island of New Zealand, situated within a harbour of the same name. The name Akaroa is Kāi Tahu Māori for 'Long Harbour'.
Akaroa is 84km by road from Christchurch and is the terminus of State Highway 75. Set on a beautiful, sheltered harbour and overlooked by craggy volcanic hills, Akaroa is a popular resort village and in summer the temporary population can reach 7,000 which places stress on the summer water supply, which is entirely dependent upon rainfall on the hills.
Many Hector's Dolphins may be found within Akaroa harbour, and 'swim with the dolphins' boat tours are a major tourist attraction.

A few of the rusted relics at Gammons Gulch
Gammons Gulch is a reconstructed old western town created by Jay Gammons. It is a mix of 1880’s to 1930’s early America. The town has been used in movies, commercials and music videos. The movie set has a large collection of antiques, old cars and movie memorabilia. You can get a guided tour of this little town. Jay will tell you the history of just about every item he has collected over the years while creating the town.
As Neil Young said: Rust never sleeps.
So take care of you. Otherwise you'll wake up some day, look into the mirror and see, what I have seen a few days ago: The future! ;-)

I really like the fly agaric mushroom. But most of all, when it dries out and "rusts" in the forest, and its cap turns a coppery-orange color and deforms in a whimsical way. That’s when it’s at its most beautiful and blends perfectly with the autumn colors. I have a few photos from this year. I'll share them this week. Poland, Karkonosze Mountains
Glasshouse roof. Farmleigh House and Estate, Phoenix Park, Dublin, Ireland.
Farmleigh is the official Irish State guest house. It was formerly one of the Dublin residences of the Guinness family.
This old Adlake lock from the Chicago Milwaukee St. Paul & Pacific railroad has seen better days, but still looks nice in my collection of railroad stuff. I thought this might go well with the latest theme from 7DWF as its both decayed and from a railroad that saw many abandonments before it vanished for good when what was left was absorbed by the SOO Line.
Hooray for texture. Or as I could pretentiously say "the integrity of a material's passage through time."
This is one from the archives. The mountains in the Bath County area of Virginia have iron ore in the rocks there so almost any exposed rock looks rusted. I thought the lines in the cracks was interesting looking.
