Benjamin...B's photostream  

Yes it has been done before but every time is different.

Just a sunset, a nice & easy photo. That's a good thing after discovering that dozens of photos from yesterday have probably disappeared in a hole in the memory card.

Is it just the tree, or is it me...

Pretty much all of NZ's lowland forests are gone. Forever. Unique ecosystems and all.

Last weekend I started walking up a different hill, after encountering a sign 'road closes at dusk'. On the way up all I saw was barely regenerating bush (fires in the 1800s, no care since, typical) and I though I could as well be at Kaitoke taking photos. So I turned back and went to Kaitoke and took photos.

While framing this, before I put the camera on the tripod, a handful of tourists walked past and snapped the general surroundings on their smartphones. Nice that they became aware of this scene, hope they make it over here...

Been taken on an offroad ride along Wellington's South Coast. My first time on a ride like this. Good fun. Thanks D.!

Another one of this kind...
