| My Bio |
I moved to New Zealand to be with my wife in 2001 and have had fun capturing the unique beauty that is Aotearoa. We are both into our photography. I shoot as Pinepig Studio and she as Spiritsdance Studio, together we are Pinedance Studios. I enjoy shooting a variety of subjects and hope to bring as much as I can of this beautiful country to family, friends and strangers. My main topic are landscapes, but I also focus on plants and flowers, antiques, patterns, textures and anything that draws my attention. My camera of choice is a Pentax K10D, which I've enjoyed using. Take a virtual trip through the wonders of this land in one of my books. All are set to full preview. |

I have a dream to create a book with my favourite black and white images. I like the "As I Wander" theme and may use this in future books.
June 2010: I've finished "Broken Memories", a memento mori of Waikumete Cemetery. Check it out and take a virtual walk in New Zealand's largest cemetery. |

"The Soulless" by L G Burbank. An excellent read, a different take on the vampire genre that has recently sprung up.
I'm currently reading "Earth User's Guide to Permaculture" by Rosemary Morrow and "TIdes of Kawhia" by Tom O'Connor. |
