Asleep on Victoria Street
I seem to be getting sleeping people on a regular basis… Must be the hot weather…

Ships Upon The Water
Spotted this ship being led into harbor by Tug boats on a recent “Drive by Shooting” trip with Cunningvision. It turned out that there were hardly anyone around to take images of so we settled on capturing the ship before moving on…

Willis Street Photographer
The nerve of some people taking photos of people without them knowing using a telephoto lens…Thats like cheating or something… At least it was a Nikon 🙂

People on Stairs
One of the many stairways down from The Terrace onto Lambton Quay.
I like how the guy on the left is looking straight at me and the other two are ignoring me…

Zoo People Watching
People usually go to the Zoo to look at the animals… I go to look at the people 🙂

Ghosts In The Machine
Finally got round to finishing off a roll of film I had sitting in my Lubitel 2 TLR Camera.
Lets just say it has a problem with light leakage… It did however give some interesting images with bits burned out of them…

Somes Island Ferry Passengers
Passengers on the Somes Island ferry.
Enclosed spaces where everyone is together are great, people don’t even realise they are having their photo taken… Not the best shot and could do with a better crop but I like the expression and interaction.

Airport Watchers
Picking a friend up at the airport is always a good opportunity to take some more images of people.

Painting With Light
Its been a while since I have done any light painting so when Fergus and I were out shooting the other night I spotted this cool piece of art and decided to give it a bit of light treatment.
Unfortunately the Rollei lens wasn’t quite wide enough to catch the whole mural but I have some shots with a 19mm Lens on my F5 which should give quite a bit more angle.
Test shot on digital

Giraffe Sequence
Was talking to someone the other day about taking images of giraffes and he was complaining about not being able to get a close shot even though he was using a 300mm lens… So I was at the zoo the other day and after I shot a couple of shots on the Rollei (which I still have to develop) I threw a 50mm lens onto the D70s to see what I could get…
Lets just say I got a bit of a surprise when he came up and tried to eat my camera strap 🙂
I had to stop shooting because he came too close and was closer than the minimum focusing range of the lens…

CD Listener on Lambton Quay
I don’t remember the last time I saw someone listening to a portable CD player… Don’t get me wrong I’m sure there are still lots of people who do… I just don’t seem to see them…
