Wellingtonia 01

I have been asked to show more from my Wellingtonia book. These are a selection of Makara pictures which appeared in the book. Makara is a rustic community on the south coast of Wellington. I have thousands of images of Makara because it is a wet brooding place, like the West Coast, which I love.

Flying People

In Manners Mall today and out of the sky dropped another flying lady. Flying and marching seems to be a recurring theme of mine. See my Flying Indian (August 20th) below.
These two were made in Cuba Mall many years ago.
Both these bottom photographs appear in my 2006 book Wellingtonia. The word Wellingtonia comes from the name of an exhibition I had in the Museum of City and Sea. The word was part of their theme at the time. Now I find it corny and I wish I could rub the 'ia' off each book. Ahhh well.

Heavensgate
Click on image for larger view
Way back in 1985 I made a spoof documentary (with drama school students) about the then new gated communities in Havelock North. We called it Heavensgate after the recent mass suicides of the American Applewhite cult. In the film God changed his mind and sent them to Kingsgate (instead of Heavensgate). I visited Kingsgate the other day and it hasn't changed.

A lady was inside as I composed this photograph. She glared at me as she walked out and I think she was going to call the cops.

A week spent teaching documentary film making at the National Youth Drama School. I normally hate teaching but this school is different.

As mentioned in a blog below (India 6) there are many similarities to early American street scenes in India. I remember the Walker Evans photographs of American towns during the 1930's depression. These photographs were made only three weeks ago.

Even in the most remote places smartly dressed young men popped up amongst the grime and dirt.
