South Island Family Holiday - Aug18

The three of us crossed the Tasman and had a lovely 8 days in Christchurch with my parents, and then did our first campervan trip. This included a long drive down to Wanaka, then we continued on to Queenstown.

Plenty of stops were made along the way. Highlights included a day trip to Glenorchy, plus driving around Lake Wakatipu.

It was also nice to see Mum and Dad and spend time with them.

We were very active on the photography and drone front. Included in these images are some astro shots I took on the Port Hills one night (a bit too much light pollution but not too bad), and early morning shoot at the Christchurch Pier as the sun came up, plus a day trip to Christchurch's Orana Park. Also shots from locations around Queenstown.

Enjoy the shots!

NZ Trip - Oct17

We spent a week in NZ late last month - this included two days in Wellington and five in Christchurch, staying with Mum and Dad.

It really was a superb trip. We caught up with a lot of friends, family + old work mates, took in a lot of sights and spent time with Mum and Dad. We also had excellent weather which always helps!

I took the Canon 5D Mkiv on a good road trip and got up early on a couple of mornings and took sunrise shots, firstly at Waimari Beach (close to my parent's house) and secondly at the top of the Port Hills.

Plus there are other random shots of our trip which included Jonathan's early 4th birthday. Enjoy, and as always, click on the images to enlarge.
