Spaarndammerdijk picture

Another surprise from the pile of work in progress.

Cloud over Berkhout

Another image of the pile of unfinished work. Completed yesterday.

Berkhout

Craigieburn road, New Zealand, that is

Making prints. This is Craigieburn Road in New Zealand, just past Arthur’s Pass.

Then you find out there is also a place with that unlikely name, Craigieburn, in Australia.

Factoid. The Interweb tells me that the name Craigieburn originates from Scotland. It combines two Scottish words: “craigie,” meaning rocky or craggy, and “burn,” meaning stream or creek. Scottish settlers most likely applied the names of the places in New Zealand and Australia.

No shortage of color in New Zealand.

Murchison, New Zealand; printed, rephotographed

All those digital archives where jpegs lie, leaking their bits. Making real prints is a beautiful thing, after all.

(Then again, re-photographing the print for this digital world does detract from the quality and experience).

Murchison, New Zealand, is a small South Island town between Nelson and Greymouth.
