Photovan does Waikaremoana

The wharf at Tokomaru bay - in both directions

[flash]

fantastic, I love the perspective on these, it draws me in

[DesmondD]

The things I like most about Tokomaru bay is the old buildings next to the wharf - I could spend hours there in the right lighting

That's why I love this Tokina 11-16 lens

These old buildings tell many tales ....

From earlier today - you can see me standing on the roof of my van

[DesmondD]

And those deep grooves are where I got stuck and had to dig myself out !
The ground looked solid and there were other tyre tracks there [ obviously a 4 wheel drive ] and I just went straight down as I hit the soft stones ....

Tonight's sunset was rather lame ....

While I was sitting in the van going through the pictures I looked across at the office - and ended up asking them to unlock the pool area for me for a few shots

I just processed my videos done with the helmet cam mounted on the dash .
here's a reasonably scenic one of the drive to Wairau bay - [ 2 1/2 min ]
