Yesterday, the media was full of articles about the endless summer NZ has been having...After a great Spring, it seems as though we have had non-stop spectacular weather since about October 2007! And the experts tell us that even though the sun is rising later, summer hasn't officially ended...No, it would appear that El Nino is going to give us at least one more large patch of warm, sunny, 'summery' weather before we might be allowed to claim that Autumn is on its way. Hurray - over 4 months of summer and perhaps more to come! The meteorologists also tell us, that the onset of winter is likely to be a very quick one this year, given the prolonged summer. I think the farmers are ready!
I love these photos (taken by E!) - particularly the photo of the one luscious, ripe tomato hanging off the vine and bathed in the setting sun - it speaks to me of the lingering summer, the last days of a memorable season.
