Business has started for the new year. It was great to have a break after the busy lead up to Christmas, with more canvas prints done than the previous year. It was good to see a good mixture of artists, photographers, and regular shooters using my services - and all the images done looked great!
Here’s an image I took while visiting Whananaki, Northland, after the new year. It was a 20 photo image taken with my Canon 20D and 70-200mm 2.8 Zoom Lense. Why use a telephoto for a wide panorama? It gave me a chance to take far more detail than a wide angle lense allowing to make for big sized prints. This produced an 86 Megapixel equivalent photo after cropping, the bottom image is a zoomed in portion of part of the image - taken about 700-800 metres away.

I love this photo, this is where I have spent many many holidays.
We have one of the little baches down close to the waterfront.
But not for much longer, you may of seen some of the baches are being pulled down, ours will be gone soon too
Any who, just love the photo! great overall prospective.

Hi Louise, yes a great view alright - the owner of the land I was on where I took the photo owns the land of the baches. Friends of mine know him and wanted me to do some panorama canvas prints at some stage, so I did a few pano shots.
Also one of the baches has been bought by another mate and he’s relocating it onto his own land on the other side of Whangarei.
