This weather screen is where the weather is recorded at Cape Reinga at the top of New Zealand's North Island. It is also where the lighthouse keeper's houses were once sited - with the lighthouse down far below.

At the northern extremity of New Zealand's North Island and now a very popular tourist destination. This lighthouse only began operation in 1941, replacing another on a nearby island. It was automated in 1987 and, since 2021, has operated on solar power with batteries. Happy Wednesday Wall, everyone.

Cape Reinga, at the far northern tip of New Zealand, is where the Pacific Ocean to the east meets the Tasman Sea to the west. They have different water circulations and, apparently as a consequence, the different colours and the conflicting wave structure seen here. Best viewed full screen.

Bench along the path to the Cape Reinga lighthouse, at the top of New Zealand's North Island The PiP shows the lighthouse with another bench, but unfortunately also with lens flare. Happy Bench Monday, everyone.

A timber wall alongside the path to Cape Reinga, at the very top of the New Zealand's North Island. HWW, everyone.
