 | Wellington Harbour Entrance. It is so hard these days to find views unspoiled by houses and man made structures, but this is fairly uninterrupted, apart from those power lines... Now where did I put those wire cutters?!?! The 35mm fixed focal length lens seems to capture a richness that other lenses cannot, it is a lens that I should use more often!

 | Concrete Man in a Rose Garden. In the front yard of the 'Blue House' was a smallish rose bed with this nice wee statue sitting amongst the roses, I think it looked cool, and still do :) Featured on the Home Page, Sat 15th Dec, 2007 | |||

 | Kelp. Some of these strands of Kelp would be 5-6 metres long, they all appeared to belong to the same 'plant' which had attached itself to the rocks on the side of a channel leading to a large rock pool. It amazed me that the Kelp remains attached since every 10 seconds or so it would all be dragged back down the channel towards the open sea, only to be caught up in the next incoming surge of water! The coming and going of the water is not tranquil and calm either, far from it as you can see with all the frothing of the water, yet it was one of the healthiest looking 'clumps' of kelp I could see.

 | Black Bird. Friendly Black bird, hopped onto a rock, it stood in the sun so nice, just long enough for me to catch its image, then it was gone flying low chasing its mate. Featured on the Home Page, Sat 10th Nov, 2007 | |||

 | Twig. I absolutely love this picture, it has colours, it has shapes, it has mystery, it's vibrant, yet it is just a humble twig on the tree with the two purple flowers. Featured on the Home Page, Thu 1st Nov, 2007 | |||

 | The Hutt River. I heard someone say once that animals were not as worthy of our efforts to help them survive because they are not 'Sentient'. Well I ask you, what is the point of our 'Great' sentience if it is simply to glorify ourselves, is sentience a great thing at all if we use it for merely 'Surviving' in the face of the extinction of Any life. I look at this water and its play with its environment, it's highly complex and vitally important part in the functioning of the world, and I wonder what prevents us from recognising the life this water has? Is it simply that we cannot 'Kill' it? We are very ignorant sometimes with our sentience, very un-scentient, very un-conscious and sometimes very guilty.

 | The Hutt River and the Rimutaka Ranges. The waters of the Hutt River meander their way towards us flowing the 15 or so miles to Petone. Surrounded by this kind of beauty and only limited ways to express how it makes us feel, I think we allow it to mingle with our souls and thus change who we are, that way we are able to express our experience of beauty by simply being ourselves.

 | Sunset Tangle. When ever I take my camera out, I try to take at least a couple of pictures, it doesn't really matter what they are of, so long as I take some. I was getting some diner from my local Chinese takeaways here. Glad I took my quota, cause I like this one. Featured on the Home Page, Thu 10th May, 2007 | |||

 | Essence of Sun. The start of another precious day and don't the strangest things make great photographs. You can see the 'Useless' double glazed windows made in New Zealand, they (the ones made by this company anyway) get condensation in them. Featured on the Home Page, Sat 3rd Mar, 2007 | |||

 | Smile. 'Here's looking at you kid!' This Red Billed Gull is so well groomed, its wings are very clearly defined, quite handsome really. The Maoris' say they hold human spirits, or perhaps as the American Indians honour eagles and bears, saying they act as 'Human Beings', it is Tapu (forbidden) to kill these birds as a result.
