Two days in Paris
The end of our England trip was spent in France. Chris and I stayed in Paris for two very hot days so we could catch cheaper flights home from CDG…
Exploring London
I apologise for the brevity of last week's post, recovering from having all four of my wisdom teeth extracted and a long car journey left me in a mood that…
Terns
Muriwai is known mainly for its extensive gannet colonies, but my favourite subjects are the little White-fronted terns that also nest on the cliffs. They're much smaller and faster, which…
Landscapes at Muriwai
A quick blog post while I move back home for the summer! While we mainly go to Muriwai to photograph Gannets and Terns, there are some great opportunities for landscape…

Oxford
Oxford is one of my favourite places. I first fell in love with it reading Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy (even though his Oxford is in a fictional world),…
Air show
Today's post was going to be about Oxford, but then I got distracted by some photos that I'd taken at the Tauranga Air show last year. I never got around…
