I was born in the land of Banjo Paterson, gum trees, and weather extremes. I am a freelance photographer. I love to make images that make people happy. To capture forever a precious moment. I am also a freelance writer/editor. I live in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, but still like to claim my Australian heritage. I graduated with a Bachelor of Communications in 2008. I am writing my first novel. I love to write poetry, short stories, and also write for the web. And there is nothing that is on a par with a sunny summer's day spent at Waihi Beach.

  1. A clever selection here. I wonder if the man on the bench encourages people to take a seat and read the paper.

  3. Awesome statues! Where is the man on the bench? I have a picture of that guy and folks always ask me where he is and I can’t remember where! (Passed through during a bike trip.) Also, I completely forgot about the man’s dog, and didn’t get it in my shot…silly me. The two kids leaning over is a nice one, too.
