Lens-Artists Challenge #341 – Personal Favourites
This was not a challenge I was expecting that Tina from Travels and Trifles would ask us to do, but I don’t mind it. I have to say this was made easier for me because […]

Monochrome Madness #30 – 1 image cropped 3 ways
My turn again this week and I thought it would be fun to see how images can change if you crop them. I thought 3 ways would be interesting to see how the story of […]

Lens-Artists Challenge # 336 – Only One Picture
Ann-Christine from LEYA has set the challenge this week and she wants us to do ONLY ONE PICTURE. Different, but I’ve been trying to do this more recently. I definitely read the instructions this week […]

New series of favourite images – That Wanaka Tree

More Churches but in colour this time.
I am keeping this short, here are more of the churches that I have photographed over the years. A few I showed the other day, but these are different views or whatnot.

Lens-Artist Challenge #307 – Tourist Attractions Near and Far
First, I would like to thank Anne and the rest of the LAPC mob for inviting me to set the challenge for you this week. I have to say I feel very honoured. You have […]

Monochrome Madness – Waterfalls moving
After the waterfall on the hike on Monday I thought it might be nice to show a selection of waterfalls in monochrome. I do really think this subject suits monochrome a lot. Maybe I should […]

Monochrome Madness #7 – Emotions
This week we have a new host for Monochrome Madness and she has picked emotions. When she first told me she wanted to do this, I was a bit puzzled as to what I would […]

Monochrome Madness #4 – Travel
It is a Monochrome Madness theme again and this time I thought we might look at travel. Just before we start I’m posting this a day early because I am still trying to figure out […]

Lens-Artists Challenge #289 – Tools of Photo Composition
This is an interesting challenge. When I first saw the title I thought oh we need to do things like rule of thirds, or leading lines, you know those sorts of composition things. However, I […]

Lens Artists Challenge #278: Unique
The Lens Artist Challenge this week is Unique and was set by Amy from The World is a Book. Sometimes with these, I am not always sure what to do, but then as soon as […]

I am not a normal photographer and I can admit that. One of the things that seems to set me apart is the fact that I don’t really like travelling. I remember having a conversation […]

Reposting a before and after – The Dunedin Train Station
We have had a visitor staying with us for the last week or so and it has been busy around here. I thought today you might like to either see this for the first time […]

Monochrome Madness – ON1 and Photoshop
I’ve been going through older photos and looking for ones that I can convert to Monochrome. I have a massive catalogue of images and one of the problems is sometimes where to start. For some […]

Monochrome Madness – Lake Mapourika New Zealand
I’ve been spending a heap of time going through all my photos from my trip to New Zealand in 2019. What a mess. I know I have said this before, but again, you should sort […]

Monochrome Madness – Milford Sound
Back to Milford Sound in New Zealand for Monochrome Madness this week. Sometimes I find that I don’t want to use images that aren’t long exposures, but then again, maybe I should.

Photo Challenge 19_47 BEACHES
Every Saturday on my Facebook page we do a photo challenge and I’ve been thinking we should do it as well, so for 19_47 it is BEACHES.
