MY WORLD
is a collection of more than 600 places and things I've seen and photographed around Hawke's Bay. Sometimes scenic, sometimes quirky but rarely is a person involved. I've learned to look, and see, and appreciate.

- as in "Variety is the Spice of Life" - is a weekly assortment of my work as a photographer with Hawke's Bay Today. Sport, adverts, politicians, scenics, awards, portraits, arty-farty, events, celebrities, accidents and fires and police arresting people, you name it! Some of them the paper never published - the bane of every press photographer's life - and some I just kinda feel connected to because of the things I saw/experienced/heard while at the assignment. ☺
MOVING PICTURES
is a newer series of posts since I've started shooting videos for Hawke's Bay Today. I feature my favourite video for the week (please be patient, they can take a little time to load), plus links to the other videos I've created that week.

Plus there are a few posts that stand out on their own:
SHANGHAI, A CITY OF SURPRISES
is my record (words and pictures) from October 2014 when I visited Shanghai in China as a guest of Air New Zealand for an intense three days of tours, food and culture shock. It was an awesome experience!

LITTLE FISH, BIG PASSION

ART DECO
in Napier and Hastings is just a visual feast! My annual challenge is to bring back something I haven't seen before ☺ and that's no easy task after more years than I can remember!

SPICE OF LIFE - TRUCKING SPECIAL
One of the biggest FUN weekends for Hawke's Bay kids, the Mitre 10 Mega Ride in a Truck Day raises funds for the Trucking for Hawke's Bay Child Cancer Charitable Trust. Convoys left Hastings and Napier, finishing up at the ENZA/Turners and Growers grounds at Whakatu.
SPICE OF LIFE - ROYAL SHOW SPECIAL
Show week is a crazy busy week, finishing up with People's Day (on Hawke's Bay Anniversary) at the Hawke's Bay Royal A&P Show at the Hawke's Bay Showgrounds in Hastings. From a day's work, these were my favourites ☺
And here's a link to the full album on Hawke's Bay Today

SPICE OF LIFE - DOG TRIAL SPECIAL
Gotta love rural Hawke's Bay. Here's a selection of good keen men (and their mates) at the first dog trial of the season, run by the Waimarama-Maraetotara Sheep Dog Trial Centre, at Kahuranaki Station

TANEKAHA COMES HOME (on Hawke's Bay Today)
I was really lucky to photograph the release of Tanekaha, the 200th kiwi at Maungataniwha in Northern Hawke's Bay. The organisers, Tasti NZ, had also put together a surprise reunion between a mother and her son. And here's a link to Amy Shanks' story in Hawke's Bay Today.
