Someone has gone to a lot of trouble with the mothership!!

Yes. Happened during our night. :-)

awesome place, this.

No, I certainly don't remember it, but back then I spent a lot more time along the river bank than on the playground. Much more fun, roaming all the way down to the river mouth and back.

stumbled on this the other day – I am surprised they didn’t just paint o_er the windows.

Bet they didn't ha_e the rubber matting then !

Where I used to play.

Hi Chris. Afraid I'm a bit slow on the uptake lately. Welcome home to you, and your family. Hoping it's treating you well so far.

We're on the move too soon, but just half way round the block,…

Welcome home to you all!

welcome home Chris and crew!

Oh, and 1 last shot from HKIA, our conveyance homeward.

On the way back to Aotearoa? Where are you settling?

Nora, cool lanterns. Seems I’ll miss them by only a couple of days this year, though the festival proper is not till March 5. Leave Hong Kong tomorrow…

Nice : )

From last night in the park, dragon in motion and fastest butterflies in the uni_erse.

Made my eyes go funny!

At's all I got.

First time visiting Hunua.

Generation, transmission, and the East 4th Ring Road at dawn-ish.

great cheer-leading tree there.

fennel, landing in the cool of the night

good for suggesting motion though : )

But it puts me in mind of this entry in the Press holiday [photo competition , for some reason – the light particle and the light wave/path...

Also means harder for others to grab a photo and reuse it in print elsewhere.

How is that? Resolution?

While we're discussing technicalities, sometimes when I open up a thread to read the latest comments, I get an…

Interestingly when I clicked on your original image, the link went to the right way.

When I saved it to my computer, it was also up the right way. I then resized it to 1200 pixels max using just preview on Mac, and uploaded…

Hi Shaun. Give Nora’s suggestion a try. If it doesn’t stick, just post it sideways and send me a note (email link above) and I’ll try to fix it.

There seems to be no rhyme nor reason sometimes. I’ve been caught by it myself when posting photos from…

I open the picture in my photo editor. I rotate it 4 times until it is back to it's upright position. I save it again. Then I post it and it and it usually stays upright. Good luck!

thanks

Golly, where are you David?

Far distant movement.

not mo_ing, definitely Sea Detritus.

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…

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

You know how when you sit by the shore and watch you can feel the awesome power of the waves as they massage the coast? Your photos just gave me that feeling.

Wow, beautiful shot!

Missed my chance to see that earlier this year. The novel has lasted long in my memory since I read it in 1989. I failed at a second attempt recently though. My brain must be more cluttered, or addled, or both.

Hey, I wonder if that's a dead one of these velvet seaweeds.

Cool!

These birds were in a hurry. Possible I have posted before, but more relevant here. :-)

Here's some same old (same old contributor)

Sprinkler spitting in the noon-day heat

Impressive shot David- all the more so with your currently compromised physical capabilities! A very steady hand nonetheless.
The…

very effective- looks cool.

I took this one some years back- just looking down onto a flickering candle- I think the circles are light…

I Tell You What, that’s an awesome shot Kieran. Thanks for joining in, and I hope you post more of your pictures.

Cheers, and Merry Christmas.

I would if I had one! Pointed at the fire and spun during exposure, which was about a second. Got lucky with the sparks some how...

Thanks heaps (and thank you randomiser!)- I really enjoyed looking at all the
photos and getting ideas for summer fun . . .

My favourite out of the ten you selected was this one (another Dunedinite- but I swear parochialism has…

Righto, after much deliberation, over the length of a coffee this morning, here are my top ten.

Kebabette – windblown
Lara – upside down Sam.
Gareth – Takeaway lunch.
Nora- Gulls.
Lilth – amazing waves.
David Hood – shooting through the sprinkler.

This squirrel wouldn’t stand still for long either, but managed to grab a couple on the hoof.

Thanks for posting this Troy. Told you it would fit in nicely. :-)

And Gareth, I might have to put a warning in the post now. “Bunnies may have been harmed in the making of…" etc. Yikes.

bus bonus!

Holy crap, amazing shot Gareth!

sun rockets

Nice.

great bone structure!

still trying to catch gull spirit rising….

Crikey. Suffering for your craft. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Speaking of speedy, my little vespa suffered its own movement injury at the weekend. Rider was largely unhurt, with chunk out of knee, and a…

Yikes!

Thank you for the good wishes. We discovered late last night I react rather badly to Tamadol, in a collapsing and needing an ambulance ride to the hospital kind of way. It has been a dramatic 24 hours.
