Afternoon in the Octagon – Buy or view the Ōtepoti | Dunedin gallery
I started with a wander through Dunedin’s Octagon. The only reason I was there was to see if I could capture any signs of autumn in the central city. However, with a number of scaffolding structures surrounding buildings, a protest in the lower Octagon and fly tipping in the upper Octagon (apparently this was also a protest) my task became considerably harder. After spending some time looking at all the different angles along with the early autumn colours on the trees, I finally found a spot I liked.
I too have been looking at the Octagon recently and I am sorry to say that the lovely calm inviting place it used to be is no more It looks uncared for and has had too many things changed pulled up pulled down altered added to all with no worry about what it looks like now Not a great place to show to visitors
