The surfers had just packed up and left. The only remains of their stay were the embers of the fire reflected upon the driftwood.

Lets Tango
1 June 2014
I was asked to be the photographer for the 20th anniversary celebration concert of Dance Aotearoa New Zealand (DANZ).
The advantage of being the official photographer is that I have freedom of travel around the venue. This allowed me to photograph behind the scenes which I find sometimes more interesting than the audience view. Fortunately there was a full dress rehearsal including the final lighting setup. There were two sets of white stage lights individually positioned on each side of the stage. I stood on the side of the stage just behind the curtains waiting for Matthew and Mira to pass in front of a stage light. This provided the halo backlit effect. The stage light beside me, burning my ear, provided the fill.
The dance itself was very emotive with great style and passion-that is Argentine tango. This also inspired me and my partner (Mrs Nikon) to move with them capturing the moment to the sensuous rhythm of the music
