I am not target practice!


















I think I'm going to sell my house and buy a motorhome. The last week on the road around the South Island has been amazing and I've loved every minute of the 1,500 km trip. You cannot beat the stimulation of fresh places, experiences, views and people on a daily basis.

The assignment was to photograph a number of retail stores around the country outside of opening hours, which meant working at either end of the day and travelling in between to the various locations. It had it's challenges I have to say! For some reason the middle of the road was always the perfect spot for the shots I needed. More than once I had to run away rather swiftly with tripod, camera and a Holden driving hit man hot on my heels! My sprint times are starting to look impressive!

On my travels I managed to get shots of mountains, lakes, beaches, waterfalls, roads, Tuataras, seals and penguins. My face hurts I've been grinning so much... it probably explains some of the strange looks I've been getting!

The job is far from over, with the rest of the country to go over the coming weeks. So if you happen to see a madly grinning photographer standing in the middle of a road junction near you, please don't aim for me!
