Kingdom Come Abandoned Set

Went and had a look at the abandoned set for Kingdom Come last night.

Lets just say that the Wellington weather is having its way with it… Not to mention the graffiti artists…

It all feels a bit mournful with all the work that went into it without being completed and then being destroyed by the elements.

Looks like it is quite the popular place to go as we weren’t the only ones there.

Colour film from Rollei and B/W from F5 still to come 🙂

Nikon D70s, 19-35mm Tokina Lens, ISO 200


Cell Phone Photographers

People taking photos of the burst water main from a week ago.

Rolleiflex 2.8 E, Ilford FP4 125 ISO Film


Double Exposure

First incident with the Rollei giving an unexpected double exposure.

The result isn’t entirely unpleasing but would be happier if I got to pick when to double expose and not the camera 🙂

Guy Taking Photo In Alley

Not that I’m territorial or anything but caught this guy taking photos in my favourite alley off Leftbank Mall in Wellington…

I asked if he minded if I took his picture and he must have miss-heard me cause he started to move his stuff out of my way so I had to explain that I wanted him to be in the picture.

Playfight on Cuba Mall

A couple of lads drunken play fighting in Cuba Mall early on a Sunday Morning.

Cuba Festival Images

Three images from the 2009 Cuba Street Festival which turned out to be the last one 😦

This was one of the days that I pretty much started taking street images…

A Couple of Skulls

Earlier this year I went exploring for some abandoned amunition storage units from WW2. Found heaps of them and they are apparently now the place where sheep go to die

Fatherhood Friday 25: Chickenpox and Cabin Fever

Whats worse than a week of chickenpox? A week of torrential rain and not being able to go out and run round AND chickenpox.

Both girls are starting to go a bit crazy and Emily is starting to talk non stop all the time…

At least today it is finally sunny and both girls are out on the deck running round chasing  each other and screaming happily.

Apart from the spots Emily has been pretty much normal all week and has done a brilliant job of not scratching.
