I love Karamea, the peace, the quiet, the wild and the wild things; I believe there is not a more diverse or beautiful place in all of New Zealand.  I I hope the photos on this site illustrate that. This is not about photography, neither myself nor my cameras are professional in any way, any half decent shots you may see here are down to the luck of circumstance in the moment. 

 

This is more about sharing a lifelong habit of snapping moments around me and my great love of the Karamea district and all the wild wonder that it holds.  All  photos are taken by myself during every day activities around Karamea, often from the car, or on discovery walks around my favourite wildlife spots.  I have no particular affinity for native or non-native, so here you will find photos of anything that appealed in the moment. 

 

I have basically lost control of the number and categories and images, years have passed by in my attempts to organise them and all I have is thousands more images.... so I have given up and here throw them at you in whatever fashion they fall on that day. I share just to share, with no objective, I am delighted if someone else enjoys to see some of the world I see.  I do hope for those that live in Karamea some of these images may remind them of the treasures that we have here, and for those who have not yet discovered Karamea, I wish that joy for you in the future.
