On the Tailings.


Here I am yesterday in the historic tailings near Alexandra. They are rubble left over from gold dredging. It's a dramatic place and I've been up there a few times, usually with the aim of taking a new photo, no luck so far.

On this occasion the trip was to see these trees. They were planted a long time ago and in their struggle to survive in this harsh environment some have developed a slight bonsai look. It was that look that I was interested in.

Thanks for the photo Haruna.
