I thought covenants were a private thing.
I thought that was one of the problems the HayHaywoods had when looking for land? I thought it was really difficult in the city, which was why they ended up farther afield. Then again, my thinking can be pie in the sky { ;)

There still seems to be covenants though. Is Sutton going to lift them ?

we were your tenants in 2008.
You will have to dive into the archives back to when the Hay, Haywoods were travelling and blogging. It is a pleasure to read. :)

What does it matter that my background is brown, black, white or yellow.
No so much that it matters but it does make a difference from the day you were born. And if you were green would you be seeking attention or would you eventually come to terms with the difference? Would you mind if your Mother was ostracized when she took you to school. Would every school accept you? Would you live happily ever after?

Seeing your Tweets at the right here. Think of postcards as mini art. Travels easy, frames well on return, and creates memorable art on the wall. Be getting the postcards Craig. Sounds fun if not exhausting so far. Are we going to get Amsterdam Pics? Yes please.

It's not about money, but often that seems all the western world cares about. And Tuhoe not Tuhoi, my bad there.

You know what? I have had nothing but warmth from the many Maori I meet. I am not an expert on whether or not they have concerns with regards their ancestral land, but I do know, they have justified grievances and a desire to right the wrongs of the past and I do see that land given back, often, benefits all New Zealanders. I see people of all persuasions setting out, and achieving an ends to a means. I see in NZ that Iwi are working with law to try to achieve peace. I can see that Tuhoi still have a grievance and I wish them the best in achieving their peace. How they achieve that, is their Mountain to climb, and it's about time they can get to the top.
Dexter, with all due respect, picking on the little guy is not what any of this was about. I think you know that much. -

Looking forward, not, to Tama Iti, in his own mind, becoming NZ’s equivalent of Nelson Mandela.
What, advocating peace and unity for the people of Aotearoa and righting some of the wrongs that has been delivered to iwi in the past and suggested present?
I'd welcome that. -

And of course the time gives me a chance to develop my style and technique.
Well that's everything in life innit. You have a great eye for the photography thing and I trust you will make a living from it . I know what you mean about portraiture being specific to the buyer and seller but don't underestimate the pleasure from your other shots. Best of luck going forward. { :)

I always keep my baby on my knees during the flight :)
And how is your exhibition going? I was pondering last night in light of this thread, how on your combining the pleasure of your pics with the exhibition and the offering to view here,how, it could really help sales of the real thing so I was hoping you are doing well down in Wellington.
