All I can say is that it has been a full on couple of weeks!
Samantha finally got Chicken Pox, unfortunately on the day my parents arrived for a 4 day visit, and after the first day Emily had a 3 day bout of vomiting and diarrhea. So lets just say that the girls werent at their best for the visit.
Anyway here are a few shot from one of our trips to the ,still being built, bike track.

OK so I probably spend too much time here but this alley keeps producing stuff for me to photograph.

Not really sure what was going on here. It could have been a small protest who knows… Just another random happening I was happy to record.

Ok I know it’s another one from the protest march but it kind of needed its own post.
If you didn’t know it was at a protest it could just be random people.
I really like the gesture from the old lady on the left 🙂

This is the rest of the shots from the protest against the new Search and Surveillance Bill currently going through parliament.
I have to say that it was quite challenging walking backwards while focusing and checking exposure with the Rollei and the F5 would have been a lot easier to use… but shoot what you got and Rollei it was. Didnt think they came out too bad.
It was slightly ironic that I was taking pictures of people protesting against people being able to take pictures…

Managed to take some images of a protest against a new Search and Surveillance Bill on Saturday.
This was my favourite shot of the day.

A couple of weeks ago I posted some digital shots of a burst water main in Manners mall (original post here).
I finally got round to processing the film from my Rollei along with some follow-up shots.
Apparently the City Council doesn’t have accurate plans of where the pipes in this area are and the water pipe does an unexpected U up towards the surface which is where the digger driver hit it. He should have been safe to go about another 30cm deeper… No one was hurt and only One shop suffered enough damage that it is suing.

People in the top floor of the apartment pictured behind who had their windows open got a bit soaked.



You can see in this shot that the pipe goes up and over something… Apparently this isn’t in the plans.
