Southern Exposure – A year in New Zealand by New Zealanders

“Sunset Conversation” – my contribution to Southern Exposure, which features as a double page spread in the book on pages 8 and 9.

Southern Exposure – A year in New Zealand by New Zealanders, is a book which presents an original, democratic view of New Zealand. I was fortunate enough to have one on my images, Sunset Conversation, feature in this book as a double page spread.

The way this book came together was quite unique. It was put together by New Zealand Geographic, and the images were chosen from 25,000 images by more than 1,500 photographers on the New Zealand Geographic Flickr group. This publication marks the first known time in New Zealand that a book has been produced from content entirely from social media.

    You can’t go past a campervan pic, the best way to see NZ, and get to the far flung parts. Great to see that it had been chosen of the book, have just ordered a copy for my 90 year old dad who was brought up here and spent many months in his van cruising the back road of NZ. It is soooo NZ – justifiable inclusion in the book!Well done!

    WOW! Just wow. You are talented! Do you need a special lens to take the star photos? Keep up the good work – NZ is an amazing place to live.
