Daily Photo – Moody Skies in Springston

I left State Highway 1 and headed for the small agricultural Canterbury towns of Springston and then Lincoln. The heavy, dark skies overhead were starting to close in and threaten rain. The day had been reasonably fine until this point, but the clouds above were dark and moody, giving the surrounding farm fields a gloomy feel. At one point I had it in mind to stop and go for a stroll, but I couldn’t find anything that looked appealing, so I simply pushed on to Tai Tapu.
