I Feel Like I'm in the Middle of a Very Big Ocean
Piha Beach, West Coast of Auckland, New Zealand. (Pacific Ocean)
These rocks remind me of a God laid down to sleep and the tide has come in around him. This particular day the storms crashed and roared. It was spectacular.

NZ? A coast classic.
KiwiAna replied
Hey John! Sorry dor the late reply. Yes this is 40 mins drive from central Auckland, NZ. Piha Beach often draws me when I’m feeling like inspiration or refreshment.

What a great photo, so beautiful and wild, it is making me homesick
KiwiAna replied
Awww Rowi, i’m sorry it makes you feel homesick… I think if I was away from NZ an image like this would make me feel the same. The wildness of the NZ coast is one of my favourite things

it’s lovely to hear from someone who has experience of Piha too. It has it’s very own energy, I think.
