A6-EOD at Dubai - 18 February 2015
|
|
The terminals and lounges at Dubai International Airport are impressive but challenging for the photographer. I decided to rise to the challenge with this composition and hope it has some merit. Emirates A380 A6-EOD is seen after pushback at Terminal 3.

The terminals and lounges at Dubai International Airport are impressive but challenging for the photographer. I decided to rise to the challenge with this composition and hope it has some merit in this version at least if not the colour original. Emirates A380 A6-EOD is seen after pushback at Terminal 3.

International Terminal - BNE - 19 February 2015
|
|
An early morning view of the International Terminal at Brisbane Airport [BNE/YBBN] includes Korean Air A330-300 HL8003 and Virgin Australia B777-300ER VH-VPH. Dull conditions are betrayed by the brightness of the overhead lights.

VH-PNI at Brisbane - 19 February 2015
|
|
Some motion blur spoils this early morning photograph which was also taken in dull conditions and through glass. However, I thought it would be of sufficient interest to my UK audience to post. Nauru Airlines B737-300 VH-PNI appears in the colours of predecessor Our Airline which, in turn, had been Air Nauru. The aircraft is seen taxying for runway 19 at Brisbane.

Around Auckland are signs of excitement about the 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup. I took this in Queen Elizabeth Square one day before England were thrashed by New Zealand in Wellington leaving them at the bottom of their group - and two places below Afghanistan!

Te Ahi Kā - 'The Enduring Fires'. Keeping the home fires burning is in maintaining mana (authority) and the right to occupy a place. Ngati Whatua are the keepers of the fire for Tāmaki Makaurau - Auckland.
The above inscription accompanies this sculpture in Queen Elizabeth Square, Auckland.

When Worlds Collide (10) - 19 February 2015
|
|
My series 'When Worlds Collide' continues with this image of Crystal Serenity at Auckland. For me, the greatest cruise ship ports are those which are right in the town or city making excursions on foot easy and exciting. The series shows cruise ships in such settings and as an imposing presence on their surroundings. This is the view from the city's busy Queen Street.
Crystal Serenity spent two days in Auckland during a Miami - Miami round the world trip. She had arrived from Raratonga and Bay of Islands and would depart for Tauranga.
