Any ideas?

The snapper don't know where the car park is!
Sometimes it is better to travel than to arrive.

Well It looks to have been taken on an Olympus TG-320 using an Fstop of/ 5.1 with an exposure time of 1/100th of a second. Seems as though the Flash was set to Auto and you had a 0 step exposure Bias.Also It looks as though the Digital zoom was around 1.4
Judging by the light colour and orientation of the Sun the Photo was taken around 3 or 4 days ago, Maybe the 11th and it was close to 5 pm. maybe 4:45 pm?

The location?

The coast, quite near the sea.

Jaypeegee had the info which of course was all correct but ibk nailed it. I was out at Makara on Tuesday. Our family owned one of the old batches (now gone) around the far bay. It was a great fishing spot then (1950s and 60s) and probably still is today.
Yep Makara is on the west coast Naki so you get a credit too.

Haha..Sorry was being cheeky. Fished just past that close point in Pete Lambs last comp for a decent sized Banded Wrasse. Not much else that day but a big ole seal.Nice place to fish.
