street lighting;
58. Taupo at night, from Acacia Bay
In praise of pink; a secluded suburban waterfront and the challenge of the night-lit city
57. At Swim Three Birds, Lake Taupo
From a pier on a rainy summer’s evening; an experiment with flash, tungsten and long exposure

Movement by the photographer, not something within the frame. But first set up your tripod.
43. Offshore squall, Taranaki, at night
Simple but fast-moving monochrome composition, in a square format.
35. Saturday night in the Domain, Auckland
Experimenting with long exposure on a slow and unusual film, on a drizzly night
32. Waimarama church at night, Hawkes Bay
Car lights add highlights to a country church while the moon hides behind the steeple
27. St Mary’s evening vigil, Nelson
The Holy Mother looks out on city lights; the subtlety of moonlight
12. Moonlit mountain from Paritutu, New Plymouth
A last shot before the clag closed in; moonlight balanced with a floodlit pylon.
9. Late sailing through the Cut, Nelson
A night-fishing boat leaves a light trail, making its way out into Tasman Bay.
7. One a.m. and the last house on the street, Waikawa
Find a quiet street and mix your moonlight with some sodium. Add your shadow to hide the tripod’s.
4. Twilight view from South Rd, New Plymouth
City lights and headlights with a mountain backdrop: balancing picture elements in the fast-fading light of day.
1. Mt Taranaki under full moon
Making the most of a break in the weather; mixing the sublime with an electric fence.
