Bernado Winery Rusty Tractors and Farm Equipment - Photography

 

 

We went for a drive out to Bernado Winery where they have all these old tractors and farm equipment from back in the day lined up and slowly rusting away. Afterwards we went for a drive up the hill and found the old van with the bullet hole in the windscreen and the old Caterpillar tractor which someone is now using as a mailbox (last photo).

Dad's Garden (Hampden, New Zealand) - Photography

 

 

 

Taken at my Dad's place in Hampden, NZ during our February trip home.  In any place my Dad lives in he always creates a beautiful garden with all kinds of activity going on in them. I remember growing up and totally taking our gardens for granted but I did always think of them as a kind of sanctuary. The last three of the bumble bees are actually at my Mum's place in Kurow.

Christchurch City (one year after the earthquake) - Photography

   

  

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These photos were taken around the Red Zone which used to be the CBD in Christchurch (NZ) but has been under construction for the last year or so since the big earthquake which devastated the city.  A few were taken along the river that runs through the city and out by Sumner. The last is the new shopping area where they made shops out of storage containers.

Very sad to see the city in this state.
