RUAHINE RANGES

This morning I went for a drive along SH50 between Takapau and Hastings to try and find some fresh snow.  To be honest I was a little disappointed, I expected to see far more of the fluffy white stuff, especially on the Ruahine's.

Here's the view which greeted me down one of the gravel roads I went down.  The weather was slowly  moving in, so I didn't linger too long...

SNOWING ON TE MATA PEAK

Just been doing a short photography refresher for a local chap who was wanting to learn more about his camera in preparation for an overseas trip later this year.

I could see from Hastings that the weather was closing in on Te Mata Peak, so we took the opportunity to take a trip up the peak and get some snow shots and also cement some of the knowledge he had previously learnt.

Safe to say I have NEVER been so cold in Hawkes Bay.  The car thermometer was saying 1 degrees C, then with the windchill (of which there was plenty) it must have been into minus figures... Brrr....

Stay warm everyone!


THE VILLAGE EXCHANGE - 360° VIRTUAL TOUR

Here's a 360° virtual tour of the Village Exchange Development which I shot earlier this week. 

Great to see a construction workers eye view of the development.  Please click on the red hotspots to view additional images.  Since this post was published, I have added additional aerial images also.

At this time the tour only works on PC and Mac's, iPhone and Android devices aren't currently supported... Please bear with me on this!

EDIT: Pleased to now be able to say that this should now work on iPhone and Android devices.  If you should happen to have any issues, please leave me a comment below or contact me directly by using the contact page.
