  • Speaker: Stuck inside the Great Disruption, in reply to Stephen Judd,

    Greg (under Hebe's flag) is keen to say you were not at all in mind in this category and welcomes you and yourn to the hood.

  • Capture: The Colour Of Spring, in reply to Nora Leggs,

    Well I never: the stuffed lamb! I remember that in Mouldy's Beehive office along with a stuffed Bambi.

    I couldn't reconcile the little horrors being chosen to sit in a prime spot with the most powerful man in New Zealand. Had thought he might have sculptures or summat.

  • Speaker: Once in a Lifetime: Unofficial versions, in reply to Lilith __,

    difficulties which we all thought were temporary have become perpetual.

    This. We knew rebuilding and regrouping would take a long time. We didn't know how comprehensive the changes in our lives would be: it's not only about the physical fabric of the city. For some of us, almost every facet of our lives has changed, in ways we never could have imagined.

  • Capture: From the Road,

    It's interesting to see the sights that capture the attention of someone from "away"; lets me look at home through new eyes.

  • Hard News: Friday Music: The Two Sevens Clashed,

    The Iggy clip appears to have a young Jane Clifton next to the man close-upped at the end. Or mebbe not.

  • Hard News: Friday Music: The Two Sevens Clashed, in reply to Jonathan Ganley,

    It looks great. And New Years Day 1977 is as remote now as New Years Day 1939 was in 1977.

    No need to be like that!

  • Capture: Movement, in reply to Lilith __,

    Thanks Hebe! I understand not everyone is as excited by it as I am. :-)

    Kelp and sea detritus are some of my favourite things! You are certainly doing some great coastal photography down south. Best wishes for this year. Near a year for you in Dunners now and looks you've found a fine niche.

  • Capture: Peak Pohutukawa,

    Attachment

    Banks Peninsula poot: this pohutukawa amazed me when I saw it by the side of the side of the road in the north-facing Le Bons Bay near the sea. I had not thought they flowered so well and became so large this far south. Apparently the Peninsula is getting toward the southern limit – does anyone knows of more southerly specimens?

    The colours in this are true, so I guess is could be a southern rata, though I don't know how to tell the difference.

    This was taken on holiday in January 2007, before my father died and the city fell down, and I always look at it with a little sadness and the memory of a simpler time. While we were staying in the bach, a piwakawaka flew inside, looping around my head, one hot evening. We knew.
