Mine is the Baring Head lighthouse near Wellington.
It is a rugged and beautiful spot, and the light was just right for this picture.
Post a picture and tell us a little bit about it.

Some of us will be saving money, expecially on petrol, and on treats such as coffees, eating out, and entertainment. It's a good time to think of those who aren't so lucky, and in particular children living in poverty. If you have money to spare - however little - go to the Share My Super website sharemysuper.org.nz..., where you can donate to a variety of charities with a proven track record in helping children in poverty. It's very simple to donate, and all the money goes straight to your chosen charity. There couldn't be a better time to help.
