Fishing boats protected from the sea by a breakwater which dates from the 1880's when the town of Oamaru was a busy port. More than 20 ships were wrecked here and many more were stranded. That all started to change in 1872 when work began on a huge concrete breakwater. In 1884 it was from here that New Zealand's first regular frozen meat steamer, the Elderslie, was commissioned to run solely between London and Oamaru.The glory days are over and the harbour area is now a registered historic area. . . . Taken with Panasonic DZ28. Thanks for your views and comments which are always valued.

A very peaceful bay and a wonderfully captured shot, thank you for sharing the history of this place. :)

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??
A scene anyone would like to be in LE. I like the boats scattered across the water. Your Panny really did the job. Good post.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
Lyn - You have used the open space of sky and water very effectively. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine
Looks so serene and beautiful Lyn with all the boats lying in the calm blue water of the harbour.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
A wonderful sea scene sister!...
