Thank you very much, Levina.

It is also a good copy of the nifty as you know from your hosting, which was excellent!!

Thanks Levina, It was quite foggy yesterday morning so I though it would make for some interesting park shots, sadly the fog had lifted by the time I got to where I needed to be for the day.
Something else I noticed, that the once quite peaceful park had a huge railway station building at one end of it (it wasn't there last time I had a camera at the park!)

Stuck in Manukau waiting for fog bound aircraft??

That is the back of the new AIT campus building which conveniently has a train station under it. Shame the tracks are a dead-end, a bit like Britomart.

Can't say I've ever been to Hayman Park, let alone the train station and I have lived up the road for about 18 years.....

is that whats down the back of there, never even thought to venture around there, i live pretty close as well.

I am fixing all my broken links in the Nifty thread. I had to find the page where I started posting and I found myself back in the period when Tessa (Estonia) and Julie (Canada) were hosting. There were batches of new pics just about every day from either one and there was so much activity going on.

How sad this thread is right now. All the travelling Nifties seem to be MIA. Or should I say AWOL?

I'm on leave week after next to look after my boys during the school holidays - plan is to subject nifty to as much photography as the kids will endure, then I'll send it on to Mark V....

I have had a reply to my PM to Nullmind regarding the EuroNifty.

Hopefully some good news...

He said that he has just returned from a trip and will post some pictures soon.
Will be sending the Nifty onwards next week.

Of course I was not referring to you two, Joeseph and Clare!!!

Anyway, good news from Nullmind, Clare.

What page do your images start on, Levina? I enjoyed them when you posted and would love to see them again!

Thanks very much, Clare.
I just finished fixing the broken links.
It starts on page 442: https://photography-on-the.net …ead.php?t=16785​0&page=442

Just been back through your images again. Very cool series of images.
I recognised some of the places from our visit in July, but much of it was off the beaten track for tourists.
We did spend some time in the Rijksmuseum, but only a few hours as we had so much to see.
Also went to the Flower Market and bought some bulbs.

We did go on one of the big tourist boats around the city, but wasn't impressed at all.
They had a recorded message in many languages which you had to listen to on a headset.
The guy driving the boat was supposed to push a button at specific points so that you got the commentary at the right time.
He kept being late which was annoying.
The boat trips we had done in other places had the person driving the boat actually telling us about places which was much better.

Is there a gallery of JUST the images from this thread so we can look through them without all of the text? Does nifty have a fb page?!

No, there is no page for just photos. My Nifty photos are in an album on Flickr if you want to see any of them. https://www.flickr.com …/albums/7215763​4124929847
I've had EuroNifty twice, so there are a lot of them. Still more to process eventually which I will post.

Here's the start of my first hosting of Nifty. I explain the photos in the thread, but not on Flickr. https://photography-on-the.net …ead.php?t=16785​0&page=468

When we did the tour, there was someone with a microphone telling us all about the places we passed. I remember we asked questions and the man would answer them. It was great fun. But apparently things have changed. What a pity.
