I decided to go for a drive the other day, with no particular destination in mind. I stopped on the road above the gorge and took these photos.

Herbertville: A winter’s paradise
Tucked away at the far end of the Tararua District lies Herbertville with its long sandy beach, dunes and hills. It is as stunning in the winter, as it is in the summer. The landscape along the beach and hills is always changing, bad weather and rough seas, have a hand in that. You can walk for miles and not see another soul, except for the seals and the birds.
How did I get started in Photography?

Paraparaumu Beach
I used to randomly take photos with my point and shoot, then I discovered the insect world, I found them fascinating and became hooked on photography. I purchased my 1st DSLR in 2013 and the rest you could say, is history..

Black and White Images

Hi There
Black and White images, I think, have a magic all of their own. They speak to us, without any distractions. To see more of my Black and White photos visit Black & White Images

Now Trending: Working for Free!

Coming Through
I think, we all have our pet projects & causes and as a Photographer, I know I certainly do.
I am quite happy to give some of my time & skills for free but there seems to be a growing trend these days, or even dare I say, mind set, for companies & individuals alike, to expect things for free or cheap, on a regular basis.
Like I said before, if its a cause or something you feel very passionate about, then OK give some of your time or skills for free but be aware, do it too often and you may become known as that “go to person” for all the wrong reasons.
We all have to live, personally I have yet to find a bank who lends FREE mortgages or a power company who gives away FREE power.
The word “exposure”, or the phrase “getting your name out there” are really great marketing tools but before you say YES to either or both.
Think about who is really going to benefit, from you working for FREE!
Foils Arms and Hog – Working for Free video, sums it all up rather nicely, I think.
