Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity

After a few great weeks off in the southern hemisphere, we are back in the South West of the Londinium: reality. It was great to see so many friends and family in just a few weeks and we hope to repay the favours to some of you this English summer. While the leaves on the old oak trees here aren't quite ready to come out, the blossom is. Our flat is the middle layer of the house in the left foreground.

South Canterbury

Being back in South Canterbury allowed me the chance to get to know my new camera a little better.


As well as learning new things I realised how much I don't know but it was still a good opportunity to get out of the car and take some pictures.

2008 McKenzie Highland Show

The Mackenzie Highland Show is held every Easter Monday in Fairlie, South Island, New Zealand. Per Dad, it's the largest one day agricultural show in Australasia - and he should know - he hasn't missed one in his life!
