A few of my favourite photos from my walk around the gardens today.

The gardens really are lovely any-time of the year. I must be one of their biggest fans :)

Centennial Park and Monarchs

I went to Centennial Park today to find the monarchs that winter over there. They are in one of the very large blue gums right by the path on the north west side of the park (opposite Pioneer). It was getting pretty late in the day when I took these photos, so got very late Autumn sun on the monarchs and they were making the most of it.

Fountain on Riccarton Road

fountain

This pond with the fountain can be found on Riccarton road (upper Riccarton). I’ve often driven past it and thought I should photograph it, but never do (until today that is).
