Mark is home.

Bogota-Miami-LA-Auckland after 6 weeks in Colombia with Andrea and her family.

Meet the parents.

Tonight we had a Skype video call to meet Andrea's parents in Bogota, Colombia which was great. Mark arrives back in NZ on Tuesday so not long left in Colombia for him now.

The morning crew.

Here's our Warrier GPP Intro classmates after our second session. Much sweating induced by our coach Jeremy who's behind the camera. I find it awful during the session but feels great afterwards :)

New Cycad leaves unfurling.

At home doing "those chores- where your list is longer than the time available" before back to the other work on Weds

Game on.

Pat and Eddie fighting it out at the Bach. We did get them out on the water and got them wet a couple of times :)

Seascape matrix.

Climbed up the hill in the morning and took this series of 18 images on my iPhone with the Hipstamatic app. Beautiful day here today for a change. Home tomorrow :(
Oakura Bay, Northland, New Zealand

Oakura treescape.

Thought I'd try a 6 x 3 ladscape challenge with the added complication of trees. It took 3 attempts to get into the groove and get it right but I got there in the end. Not bad for hand held with an iPhone.

iPhone 4s Hipstamatic combined in photoshop (because unfortunately the iphone won't fully display 6x3 in the Photos Album view).
