This is not St Andrews but St Paul's Anglican Church but I do love your take on the church - really beautifully done! It's such a great building to photograph. Did you know that this church was built in 1886!
Welcome to My View of Auckland (New Zealand) The reason for this site is that moving here 5 years ago I found it a very lonely city to live, but that gave me the chance to discover its real beauty.
A little History European settlement can be traced to 1840. New Zealand's first governor, Captain William Hobson, chose Auckland as the capital. Hobson decided upon the name Auckland, in honour of his patron and former commander, Lord Auckland (at that time, the viceroy of India). Many of the other place names in Auckland bear the influence of Hobson's patron. Lord Auckland's family name was Eden, and a great many parts of the city bear this name. The volcanic cones that are dotted all over Auckland became natural sites for pas, or fortified Maori settlements. Several of the best known lookout areas in Auckland, such as Mount Eden and One Tree Hill, bear the traces of these pas.
