Природные тeкстуры

Как и предыдущий кадр, этот снят на пляже Мишн Бей. На заднем плане, как обычно, остров Рангитото. А на переднем… Хм… Затрудняюсь назвать это, но могу с уверенность сказать, что этот холмик остался после игры ребенка 🙂 А кучка водорослей лучайно оказалась в кадре, как и чайка 🙂 В общем, просто пляж… * * *

Еще один вид на остров Рангитото с Mission Bay. Рангитото – остров вулканического типа. Один из самых молодых вулканов Новой Зеландии. Ему всего только около 600 лет. Древние маори были свидетелями грандиозного извержения, породившего этот конический, высотой 260м, и почти правильный в окружности, остров. К острову ходит небольшой пассажирский катер. Восхождение на Рангитото – довольно […]

I’ve heard an opinion that Russians in New Zealand have forgotten how to grill shashlik. I’m proud to say we haven’t! 🙂 * * *

To finalise my previous post about a photo shoot with members of local camera club I publish today two my shots of the model. Colin used a flash and Nicola hold it but I had to shoot without any flash. And I glad to realize that my D300 works great! I touched “Sergeant” with some […]

A couple is making home video. I guess they are tourists inspired by a beautiful view of Rangitoto Island in Waitemata Harbour. No one can resist to take a picture or record a couple of minutes of this icon of Auckland. * * *

Here is one of central beaches of Auckland. It’s Mission Bay. It’s very popular place to walk, to ride a bike, to swim, to have a picnic, to dine etc. We come there usually to walk along coastal line but Anton rides his bike. Despite overcast day and a smell of rain it was very […]

My son and two his friends (they are brothers) are comparing Anton’s bell with a bell of a rent bike. On the background a mate packs his rent bikes in his truck. You can also notice rent prices for three types of bikes. In last October I wrote about a bike for three riders. Now […]

Once I was a witness of a terror. Two very fit men in black wet suits jumped to water and quick swam toward a cruise ship. The ship went along a waterway from port of Auckland and two swimmers reached the ship very fast. Unfortunately a battery in my camera got flat when they blown […]
