Some of my favourite wild places in New Zealand

Happy New Year readers - may 2010 treat you well!

Thanks for the well wishes I've received re. my tooth problem. It's now sorted and all I can say is it's left me with a reminder that good health is everything, and an unbelievable need for sleep.

Some more scans of my slide collection - some from my early days of New Zealand mountain and landscape photography - some of my favourite shots and places really.
