A photograph from an Auckland drone photographer is bringing delight to locals after he highlighted a natural attraction many never knew was right in their backyard.
Mark Yelavic shared the photo of his 9-year-old son Mateo floating in a rock pool to a Hibiscus Coast community page on social media, with a caption asking Coasties if they recognised the spot.
Locals were keen to pinpoint the location, with various suggestions offered - some close and some way off.
The photo was widely praised, with one saying it captured an "incredible moment".
