Lake Matheson, West Coast, December 2010
Better late than never… In December 2010 we went to the South Island by campervan for three weeks . The main focus of the trip was a visit to Fiordland and Southland. A three day drive brought us to our first goal, Wanaka. Via Queenstown we continued to Te Anau, to walk the Kepler Track, a 3-day Great Walk. The last stop of the trip was Stewart Island, where we also celebrated New Year’s Eve. I’ve posted a small selection of photos of this trip.

Pōhutukawa in bloom, Mission Bay, Auckland, December 2011
At the start of the New Zealand summer the Pōhutukawas are taking over the coastal areas of the North Island with their beautiful red flowers. These trees are always in bloom around Christmas time, and therefore also nicknamed New Zealand Christmas Tree. Last month I took some photos in Mission Bay, with the iconic Rangitoto Island as a backdrop.

| On 30 October 2011 the adidas Auckland Marathon took place. A record number of over 15.000 participants completed the sport event this year. As photographer I took photos of the set up and crowd flows at three different locations. |

Clown Fish, Samoa, July 2011
Last week we went to Samoa for a ten day holiday. We explored both of the islands of Samoa by car. Every day we moved to a new beautiful white sand beach, stayed in a beach fale and snorkeled in the clear turquoise sea. Of course I took my new underwater compact camera with me during the snorkeling trips.

| With photography it’s not always about flash big cameras. In some situations a small smart camera can do the job as well, or even better. With an upcoming holiday to Samoa in mind, I bought the Fujifilm FinePix XP30. This 14 mega pixel compact camera is water-, shock-, freeze- and dustproof. I choose this camera because it can go 5 meters under water; ideal for snorkeling at Samoa! Photos will follow soon. |
