Do you get better sunlight in NZ, or do you wait until late afternoon (or maybe early morning)? Whatever, your photos are always a delight.

Hi Rik and thanks
. Better light? I don't know, but yes generally most photos are taken late in the day, often just before the sun goes down. Hmm that isn't intentional there just always seem to be other things getting in the way of train running in the middle of the day. Probably another thing that affects the light is being mostly under a canopy of trees! I do though use the light balance type settings on the camera, setting it to either sunny or shade rather that auto and comparing what the camera screen shows to how it looks to the eye. The auto setting in the garden often appears colder than it does to the eye.
By comparison I grabbed a couple of shots just using my iPhone rather than my proper camera (a Canon).
But it was a quick run before cooking tea just to check some ballasting down with Rowlands mix in this section of elevated "baseboard"
And thanks as always everyone, I really appreciate your comments
Encourages me no end
