Nigel's Diary
sizzling summerNovember 30th, 2010Dancing Dusky DolphinsNovember 15th, 2010
After swimming with over 350 dusky dolphins in Kaikoura last week they put on a stunning acrobatic display. A beautiful day for photography as well Ngatamoti Fair, NelsonOctober 30th, 2010
A visit to Ngatamoti Fair is a must if you’re in at the top of the South Island in early spring. The competitive wood chopping is the real crowd drawer. We discovered this year that the choppers wear chain mail socks! and have interesting reading habits Kahurangi National ParkAugust 10th, 2010
We had an amazing walk to the top of Mt Arthur (1795 metres) on the weekend. Mt Arthur is set in Kahurangi National Park ( NZ’s second largest) and occupies a large part of the northwest of the South Island. Winter has the perfect walking conditions and the light and colours are spectacular Kaikoura SealsAugust 9th, 2010
Mid - winter is the perfect time to photograph seal pups. We found these 50 playful seal pups hidden in the bush under a waterfall near Kaikoura. Rough and TumbleJuly 29th, 2010
Rough and Tumble Lodge is one of our favourite wilderness lodges in New Zealand. If you are looking for an Ndutu Lodge style experience in NZ - this is it. Great hosts, incredible food and the most stunning wilderness location. Have a look at their new website: www.roughandtumble.co.nz Late Summer LightMay 10th, 2010
May is a stunning month for photography with clear sunny skies and perfect lighting for so much of the day 4WD AdventureApril 16th, 2010
A lot of fun was had leading a group of Land Rover owners on a tour of the Golden Bay area. A big highlight was the Devil’s Goldfield track in the Kahurangi National Park Farmers ParadiseApril 14th, 2010
There are certainly not many more stunning places than this to have a sheep farm. We recently visited the Harwood farm south of the Anatori River. Just hope the sheep appreciate the beautiful scenery and exciting trip to market across several tidal rivers! Sun-downersApril 1st, 2010
There is nothing nicer while travelling around NZ than finding a deserted beach for a sun-downer. On the West Coast you can have miles of empty beach to yourself anytime, just pull over and enjoy! |
