Empty Street
I'm into black and white at the moment - hence all the latest pictures in the photostream are in this format. I think it can add real impact to some photos such as this one above. The photo was taken last winter near the campus on a still morning. There was a heavy frost on the ground and snow in the hills around the city. Most people were still indoors. I really liked the atmosphere of the location when I took this photo. Isn't it funny how you can always remember the the times and places afterwards. And so by converting the image to B&W I am trying to convey the overwheming sense of stillness in what is usually a busy part of the campus. Best viewed large on flickr.

At Rest
Occasionally I find, after reviewing old photos, one that I think deserves a bit of rework or adjustment. Here is one example that received that extra attention. In this case I simply recropped the orginal image and converted it to black and white with a slight blue-grey tint.

I took this from across the harbour at Devonport while visiting Auckland at Christmas.

Stained Glass Ceiling
I have always liked taking photos of stained glass. Light and colour once again make this shot stand out. Taken in the foyer of the Auckland Museum.

Smaills Beach Dunedin B&W 3
Smaills Beach has been a fertile ground for me so I was curious to see if they would look as good in monochrome as they do in colour. Here is the result with number 3 of 4 in the series.
