July 2025
These are some of my first photo studies taken when I was at secondary school and the early years at university. The first photograph was taken with my dads camera at our family farm’s walnut grove. The camera was a Konica rangefinder made in Occupied Japan. Ironically the last film camera I had before totally embracing digital was a Konica Hexar rangefinder camera.
The remaining photos were taken with my first SLR camera bought from Hong Kong. It was a Canon FTB. I am forever grateful to Errol Tong for bringing the camera to me when he visited my parents motel in Blenheim.
