GKPE 8, Yet more NZ ramblings from some flightless Kiwis.

Hey Congrats Tim!

Side job as a wedding consultant?

Thanks guys. I'm hiring great photographers, I'll plan the day to make their job easy, tell them what I'm after from our photos, and I'll let them do their thing. I won't be able to completely turn off being a photographer, but with my fiance and friends all around should be fine.

Some people are just pigs .......... KEEP IT GREEN

Take only photos, leave only footprints.

Mark V and me did a spontaneous trip to Whatipu. Odd night in that the sky seemed to be filled with smoke, could have been from aussy fires.
Place hasn't changed much in 2 years. very dry. Got out to cutters rock which is meant to be a no no

Anyway couple of pics

The sunset last night was crazy... love the second photo there with the sun's rays... we saw it while driving home from the Waikato from a wedding.. I tried to get a shot out the window on the motorway with the 70-200 lol! the smoke drifting over from the west is definately making for some interesting skies

Was great to get out and have a walk, didn't do too well, out of practice

May need to send a couple of bits of gear in, 24-105 has noisy aperture blades and the sensor on the Mk3 seems to have a black spot issue (not sensor snot although there is a fair bit of that as well)

Oh I forgot to mention, I got engaged a couple of weeks back

Easy enough thing to overlook I suppose

Congratulations, well done.

Be a good days trip. Best done in Feb when dry to get an idea of tracks before rains.

Perspectives... Lloyd would cost about $15K just to get here!

I can understand a warning, but where this sign is, no one is ever going to see it!

Last one, more practice required.
