Awanui Church at Sunset

Awanui is a small settlement just north of Kaitaia in Northland, New Zealand. This image was taken at the end of a day’s sightseeing around some of the beautiful beaches in the surrounding area.  As we were passing through Awanui on our journey back to Manganui this view caught our attention.  This is one of a number of small white wooden churches that are dotted around the Northland region.  The colour of the sky and the shadowing in the long grass in the foreground are what caused us to stop to capture the moment.
