Creating…………..

…………………Music


These hands played a battered looking piano, but the music they created was divine.

The following was written by the musician  
“This piano came from the dump.
I have restored, repaired and returned it in an ongoing, self inflicted piano tuning apprenticeship.
PS.  All of the music playing was composed by me on this piano which now lives in my van”

For the fifteenth year, Labour Weekend Sunday was celebrated in style at the Ngatimoti Festival.  This extremely popular school fundraiser is located in the pretty Motueka Valley which is 18km from Motueka, NZ. All day music, a wide variety of food, games, stalls, baby animals, wood chopping and hand shearing were some of the activities available.
It was a perfect day in the country enjoying the friendly atmosphere and pleasant weather.

Thank you for the lovely comments and stars for yesterdays mother and ducklings swimming into the setting sun. I’m glad many of you liked the unusual lighting effect.
