Adventures In Assisting: All Woman Gallery Opening
Last Thursday was the opening of Bev Short’s “All Woman” exhibition at the New Zealand Portrait Gallery here in Wellington. I do a bit of assisting for Bev and had helped with a fair few of the images in the exhibition.
It was pretty damn cool to see them big and framed as a series.
Well done Bev!
Of course I took my Rolleiflex and with some 400 ISO film pushed to 3200 took several rolls during the night. Gallery lighting is not your friend when it comes to photography 🙂

30 Years Nuclear Free
A couple of weekends ago it was the 30th anniversary of New Zealand being nuclear free… I’m hoping that these were some of the original activists from 30 years ago

Former Home For Boys
Spotted this one wandering around… The entire rest of the block has been demolished so I guess this one is protected…

Lights Against A Darkish Sky
I really liked how this shot turned out even if it hurts my eyes since the lights are only just discernible from the sky…

Peace Walking
I couldn’t think of a better post to put up on ANZAC ( Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) day where we remember all the people who fought in the various wars…
Least we forget.
Peace.

I’m loving the afternoon light at the moment 🙂

Bus Station Backlight
This was taken last Tuesday afternoon as I wandered around for 30 minutes while the girls were at ballet. The light was spectacular and I ended up taking a whole roll (12 shots) which is pretty unheard of for me 🙂 .
This was taken using the time honoured “I’m waiting for you to walk past but really I am taking your photo” method.

Coffee Fail
I haven’t seem many sleepers about recently so and I had to grab this one quickly as a member of staff was hovering nervously in the background who had obviously been told to move this guy on :)… Guess the coffee didn’t work so good.
