Huisinis Reds
Just getting to Huisinis feels adventurous. It’s a twelve-mile single-track road but the remote little headland is worth it.
Along the way we got excited by an inviting sign pointing to a viewing point for eagles, but the mist was thick and low - we could barely see where the path went, let alone anything majestic – mutter mutter.
We parked our van by a small building for visitors to shelter, it has a large glass fronted window in a room full of picnic tables and is perfect for escaping the weather whilst admiring the view.
Thankfully, the beach wasn’t too misty, and it was quiet which suits me.
When I saw the mostly sandy beach, I was worried I wouldn’t find much to photograph, but tucked away to the east were plenty of these distinctive red rocks, not yet worn smooth. Selecting and laying out rocks that please me is such a pleasure - I like to imagine someone else smiling as they too find them.
From here you can walk to the North side of the headland where the beach is very rocky - more clocks - woo hoo!

Clock Specifications
Approximately 312mm wide by 332mm tall.
UV printed on the back of 8mm clear acrylic.
The clock mechanism is very quiet (but not truly silent) with a sweeping second hand. It is battery driven and requires 1 AA battery (included).
The clock has a hanging hole at the back for you to hang it on a hook or nail.
UV Print
Utilising some of the most up-to-date printing technology in the world, Ultraviolet (UV) printing is a technique using special curing ink. Directly after being sprayed onto the reverse of the acrylic, the ink is hardened with UV light.
This production method offers high quality print, is fade and scratch resistant, and the finished print will have a more durable surface than a solvent based printing process.
UV printers are also more environmentally friendly when compared to other types of printer.
Packaging
All the packaging is compostable: the box; void filler (a starch-based material that dissolves harmlessly in water); packaging tape; paper clock face protector and clock hands guard - the card and paper are also suitable for putting in your recycle bin.
