GOPI 2018

I entered the Guardians of Pauatahanui Inlet photo competition again this year and managed to get my best result so far with winning photos in the Recreation and Artistic categories along with three highly commended photos in the Recreation, Artistic and Scenic categories (I’d previously won the Wildlife category back in 2013). Alayna and I […]

February highlights

Walking at Zealandia: Camping at Kaitoke: Chinese New Year: Plimmerton fish and chips: Walking in Wellington on my birthday: Back to Zealandia: Night time at the Pauatahanui […]

Wellywalks

There have been some new meetup groups Keryn and I have joined over the last few months. One of them is Wellywalks, a walking group which came about through the desire of some Adventure Wellington members to have scheduled walks for those who want to walk at a more sedate pace and spend some time […]

An excuse for photos

There are a couple of photo competitions that I’ll be looking at entering over the next month or so. The DPhoto Amateur Photographer of the Year is back and this year sponsored by Nikon. They’ve done away with the silly voting scheme from last year as well which is good. I’ve also recently found out […]

Walking Locally

The opportunity finally presented itself (good weather, the tide was right, we were both available and willing) for a chance to walk the coastal path between Pukerua Bay and Plimmerton on the weekend just gone. We caught the train from Plimmerton to Pukerua Bay and then headed down to the Bay before following the coast […]

Been there before?

The other day there was another interesting sunset over the Pauatahanui inlet and I managed to drag myself up from the chair in the lounge to take a couple of photos.
