University Magazine Review
Every semester the University of Auckland Photographic Society (of which I am a member) has an exhibition, usually held in various cafes around Auckland Central. Our topic this Semester was…
Lake Taupo
After being rained on and surrounded by fog in the National Park, we stopped at a few places around the edge of Lake Taupo to look for birds. At one…

Blue Duck Update
Last weekend we stayed in Taupo for a bit of a holiday. On Sunday we were up early to visit Tongariro National Park and hopefully see some snow, but we…
Welcome Swallows
This past week has been an exciting one for me. In the space of a few days I’ve achieved a few photographic goals that I’ve had for some time. The…
