Southland skies are stunning
Southland skies are stunning! We’re a rainy and blustery lot down here. Thankfully, the difficult weather doesn’t hang around for long.
My challenge was to create small landscapes every weekday for a month starting October 2021.
A drive through the Danseys Pass in the Otago inspired works in the first part of the challenge, followed by the skies around Invercargill. A family journey to the southern arm of Lake Manapouri in Fiordland gave rise to the final three works.
I’ve arranged it so you can easily start at the beginning.

Oreti beach is perfect to watch spectacular cloud formations blow in from the Southern Ocean. The flat beach lets you easily drive to your fave spot.
Driving foreshore from Riverton to Oreti Beach in Invercargill was an impromptu delight this past Sunday. What a magical journey.
Amazing Invercargill skies can be easily viewed from Tramway Road and Rockdale. I often pull my car off to the shoulder for a good view of the city.
Spectacular cloud shows seen from my window make it difficult to focus on creating art inside. Long white clouds scudding captivate.
