2014 in Review
Both photographically and generally speaking, this has been a fantastic year. I've learnt a lot, not just about photography, but about why I take photographs and what drives me to…
Deleting Detritus
UPDATE: I wouldn't advocate deleting like this normally. This was an exercise in pushing myself to take better photos. Most of the time I don't delete more than the seriously…
21
It's apparently a big deal when you turn 21. To be honest, to me it's just another number. I'm marking the day by running a half marathon (a suitable 21km)…
New Zealand Geographic Young Photographer of the Year
What can I say that hasn't been said already? Dad was quick in getting a blog post out about this last night! Having my photographs recognised in such a large…
100 Posts!

Caught in the rain – Storm in the Midlands
Today is a little bit different. While we were staying in the Midlands, we had pretty regular afternoon storms. Dad and I were down at the Large Dam taking photos…
Frustrating Days – Malachite Sunbirds
UPDATE: Here's Dad's account of the day! Sometimes you have a beautiful stage, but no players. Sometimes you see a beautiful photo, far away, and when you get there it…
Two days in Paris
The end of our England trip was spent in France. Chris and I stayed in Paris for two very hot days so we could catch cheaper flights home from CDG…
