Just a street corner at night

I tried hard to think of something to add here, but nothing came to mind, maybe because it is a corner I drive around probably everyday and don't think anything of it.

I could see this block of flats way in the distance. They stand out on a knoll. I wondered what it was like over there. Now I know.

I was looking through the archives and I noticed some photos

, but I had not photographed when the sun was going down, that was a good enough reason to go back again.

expansion of a wellington neighbourhood

Maybe a nice place to live, there were horses in a paddock over yonder, a sports field for football or cricket, and wellington just a few minutes down the road, plus the sea in the other direction. But enough of that, it's just a picture of peoples houses.

places can change when the sun goes down.

I walked here around midday, the light was bright, the shadows were black, I made a mental note to come back later. When I returned, the lights were coming on, people were passing through to where they live, a couple were practicing a dance in a hall to my left, and in front of me a boy was kicking a ball against the wall, I thought yes, places can be more interesting when night is approaching.
