This is a view of Bluff Hill, Napier as seen from the Masonic Hotel.
There are plenty of way better places to see Bluff Hill. Anywhere along Marine Parade would give you a better view, but this view over the top of the distinctive pastel green stucco of the Art Deco Napier building stood out to me.
I'd like to say it was a careful compositional application of the 'rule of thirds' or the balancing combination of warm and cool colours that drew me to this view, but I don't recall any of that entering my mind!
