Waikaremoana
I didn’t really know what to expect when I decided to go to the workshop at Lake Waikaremoana in the Urewera National Park. Of course I had my plans about what kind of work I wanted to create… I wanted to explore some new concepts and ideas. I was planning five days of uninterrupted photography and I promised myself that nothing is going to change that.

Light in Motion Photography Exhibition
The art of abstract impressionist photography
Using both traditional and modern techniques, the pieces in this exhibition will challenge the commonly held perception that photographers need to produce crystal clear, pin sharp images to entice an audience.
A new and visually interesting way to portray the natural environment that surrounds our city.
Work by: Phil Platt, Eva Polak, Donelle Fairall and Hamish Blackie.
