Bottlenose Dolphin
I was walking back to the car after spending the morning photographing birds on the Tawharanui peninsula when I saw a pod of bottlenose dolphins swimming in the surf. I've seen dolphins a few times over the simmer but luckily I had my long lens with me this time. Very cool to see.

Whiteheads aren't the easiest to photograph since they move around so much but you get lucky sometimes.

New Zealand Sunset
I almost missed this sunset thinking it wasn't going to be great but it ended up being one of most colorful I’ve seen. Thank you New Zealand.
