Simon Woolf
Another Wellington photographer, this time Simon Woolf.
This is probably the first time I have seen him without a camera as he was changing a light outside his studio. After I took this we had a chat and he told me he had just purchased his second Rolleiflex 🙂

Peter Black
From time to time I come across other street photographers while I am wandering around…
Peter Black has just had his book “I Loved You The Moment I Saw You” published a couple of months ago (you can see it HERE) so when I saw him wandering around with his camera I did a quick evasive maneuver round the back of a block to catch him as he walked past (not easy to do quickly with a two year old strapped onto your back).
It was an excellent case of good preparation bad execution as I pulled the focus a bit… He obviously saw me and grabbed a couple of shots of me and Sam 🙂
When we walked back later on in the morning he didn’t notice me taking the shot of him being interviewed about the book 🙂

Haunted
A couple of shots of the road going into the Fever Hospital… Spooky

Cunningvision
A shot of Fergus aka Cunningvision on one of our urban explorations… This shot would have been awesome if he didn’t have the digi round his neck 🙂
I think he is shooting on a FED of some description…

I Hate When People Blink
This is from a while back when I locked my keys in my car before going out shooting…

Return To The Abandoned Fever Hospital
These shots are from the second trip to the abandoned Fever hospital (The images from the first trip are HERE)
The light was much more subdued this time and being able to shoot wide with the 50mm on 6×7 (28mm equivalent) was pretty cool.
Cant wait to go back after dark sometime and splash some light around 🙂

National Front
Caught up with these guys just as they were finishing up with their rally. Their rallys always tend to have a high number of police.

Fever Hospital
The other week Fergus (Cunningvision) organised to be let into Wellingtons old Fever Hospital/Chest Hospital. There is talk that the SPCA is going to be taking it over and we thought it would be a good opportunity to document it before there were any changes made.
The place is supposed to be haunted and the night after we were there the Strange Occurrences Paranormal Investigation Group spent the night. I have to say that there was an eerie feeling to the place.
I have to say that this is one of the cooler places we have been to photograph and unfortunatley we both had prior arrangements so we couldn’t stay as late as we would have otherwise done.
Re-shoot will be done 🙂
Abandoned Ramp
In Normandale Wellington…

Over The Wall
Spotted this guy taking a shot of the back of the Occupy Wellington tent site (at least that’s what I think he was taking)
