Lake Karapiro Hydro Dam looking south from Karapiro Hydro Village. To the left, and above the orange weed boom, is Lake Karapiro Domain – scene of the 2010 World Rowing Championships – the rowing lanes are just out of shot to the left again. To the right the dam itself and in the foreground the sculpture Te Ihingarangi – in the form of the stern post of a Maori canoe – which celebrates the history of the immediate area. Friday evening (6:52PM) the 15th of October 2010.
