Its been a funny year… A couple of weeks back my monitor decided to die on me hence there hasn’t been any posts up for a while but a friend has loaned me one til I can get mine fixed (Cheers Mal!)
What better theme to start back with than another sleeper… Enjoy 🙂

I love it when people hit me up to take their photo and then seem surprised when I do…

Recently I submitted a framed photo for the Phil Jacobs Benefit . Phil is one of the few camera repair people left in Wellington and sadly he has become seriously sick which has put a major financial strain on his family.
I have had my Rolleiflex fixed by Phil on numerous occasions and he has always gone out of his way to help me out.
They had a live auction last Friday for some of the prints and the rest have gone on TradeMe (NZ equivalent of Ebay).
Anyway if you want to buy a nice framed, darkroom printed shot of one of the founding fathers of Wellington’s statue overseeing repairs done to a street light then now is your chance, unfortunately I think bidding is restricted to NZ only… Anyway the auction is Here go have a look 🙂

While waiting for another time Lapse to complete I shot this guy who later came up and showed me his picture… I have to say I was impressed… It was the most original shot I saw being taken in the couple of hours I was there 🙂
