Local Places, People, 'Critters' and..........

All of these images were taken within about 10 k of our home at Parau. There are a number of beaches close by, Armor Bay, Mill Bay, Cornwallis, Kakamatua, Kaitarakihi, Fosters Bay (at Huia) then further out, Whatipu. Countless walking tracks criss-cross the area, plus a number of water reservoirs supplying Auckland City: Lower Nihotapu Dam is just 1 k from our home, Lower Huia Dam is seven k. I will steadily add images of local identities, buildings, business's, artists of every kind, our wonderful local newspaper (Laingholm Roundabout). If you have something/somebody/somewhere you would like to see in here please contact me, my email address is with my profile page. I hope you enjoy viewing my images of this beautiful, creative and interesting community 1% as much as we enjoy living here. While I do my best to get permission from any people in my images, this cannot always happen. If anybody has a problem with appearing in here, please contact me and I will immediately delete that image.
Latest images are at the top of the gallery.

It is getting close to 30 years since my wife and I spent 3 month in NZ after being Peace Corps volunteers in Fiji. We would love to go back and see both islands again. So it is very good to see this gallery to help remember. Voted

Hi Ted
Isabel Sutherland told me to have a look at your photos, and they are fantastic. I have just bought my first Canon E0S 350. Having a look at your web site has given me the inspiration to get out there and start snapping! Never know might see you and Isabel, any tips would be great. Do pop in for a cuppa!
From Lin and Pete 1308 Huia Road!
