Capoeria in Cuba Street
Saw this happening one Saturday while having a quick lunch break from work.
This is the reason I always try to carry my camera with me
Seals at Redrocks
Being one of the few days of the year when shops are actually closed the boys from the shop went on a 4WD mission round Redrocks… We must have had at least 9 cameras between 4 people and the boot of the Landrover was almost filled with camera equipment.
All of the female seals have migrated for the winter so only the singe males are left and with no female around the seals are reasonably placid as long as you dont get too close or get between them and the water.
All images with Nikon D70s 80-200mm f2.8 lens
Seal just about to eat Fergus

What you lookn at?

Happy Easter and Fatherhood Friday 3
Since having kids I have found myself adopting or making up phrases, here are a sample of a few I seem to use the most:
Less talk more walk
Lets go monkeyo
Faster like Pasta
Red man, red man, wait, wait, wait… Thanks Amy
Sam: now crawling and into everything shes not supposed to be

As well I have started spontaneously singing at random times when with my kids, usually at the supermarket or similar. Top hits include:
Move it, Move it
Creep… Minus swearing sometimes
Hakuna matata (The Lion King)
It is also worrying when your wife borrows your 3 year olds accessories (in this case a scarf) and even though they asked if said 3 year old wanted to wear them and were told no a tantrum enschews because she now wants to wear it herself. This is a situation I have never even dreamed that would have to be resolved.

Shot in the middle of the day with speedlite on full power. This is pretty much how the image looked on the camera.
Home of the Lost Soles
Taken with speedlight on full power in the middle of the day at Castle Point, New Zealand.
Went out as a day trip after looking at a map and thinking it would only take an hour and a half to get there from Wellington. 3 Hours later we arrive and only get to spend 30 minutes before we have to leave to get back to Wellington to pick up the family from work and creche.
Very cool place to take photos, must go back and camp sometime.
Sometimes it feels like my D70s has more dust than sensor.
Lost Printer
Ive noticed over the last couple of weeks that my printer has been starting to fade into the background, possibly because it is out of ink. After purchasing some ink (which cost more than I initially paid for the printer) I cant find it anywhere…. Weird. This pic is of a slightly cleaner desk as I used a camera, speedlite and off shoe TTL cable that was otherwise on the desk.
The situation has gotten worse… Amanda actually needsd something printed (ukulele music) and the printer cartridge has also been eaten by my desk…
Might have to tidy somewhat before work today.
Snail on a Wire
As the title suggests it a snail on a power line… Not sure where it was going or even where it had come from… All I know is it had a long way to go.
