It would be good to put a link to Public Address: Capture on these cards as well, to spread the love...
(Please note: printed colour may vary from colour seen on your computer (go look at a wall of TV screens to see how various devices may resolve the same colour information), probably best to leave images as RGB as my printer's conversion from RGB to CMYK seems to be more sympathetic than converting to CMYK in PhotoShop or similar)
What could possibly go wrong... : - )

Ngāi Tahu
Guest Post
We welcome back Adrienne Rewi to Capture, with a series of photos from Ngāi Tahu.
Words and photography by Adrienne Rewi.
In 2006, almost 50,000 people identified themselves as Ngāi Tahu, making it the fourth largest Māori tribe in New Zealand, with the largest territory of any iwi. Throughout the South Island there are 18 Ngāi Tahu rūnanga – a representative from each makes up Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu, the governing body which oversees the tribe’s activities.
In the 7 years I have worked for Ngāi Tahu’s quarterly magazine TE KARAKA as a journalist and sub-editor, I have been extremely fortunate to have travelled to all eighteen rūnanga and marae, and to have had the opportunity to build up a huge library of Ngāi Tahu images.
The selection here is a tiny keyhole peep into contemporary Ngāi Tahu life and all images are published here with the permission of Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu.
Laneway 2012
Too soon?
Having just recovered from the Big Day Out, a group of us ventured to Laneway on Monday, in the third venue in as many years, Wynyard Quarter. Much has been said about the queues, the heat, and there was certainly an apparent lack of access to sunblock, but I went for the bands. And, from where I was standing, they were brilliant.
I'll be back. Few shade clothes and trees would be good next time. In case no one mentioned it.
The Robots Are Here!
Introducing...
In the first guest post of 2012, we welcome Martin Horspool to Capture.
Robot Road Trip
Robot builder and photographer Martin Horspool has placed some of his favourite robots amongst photos that he has taken from around New Zealand. The result is an amusing blend of retro charm and classic Kiwiana.
He enjoys getting amongst interesting groups of people, usually near old motorbikes or cars, looking for photo opportunities.
He has published a book of these which can be previewed here.
Robot Road Trip.
