Great trip to Hawkes bay, it was a real mixture of weather from really sunny to heavy rain storms, but it made for interesting photography. The best bit for me was the trip to Cape kidnappers, it was amazing to get so close to the gannets and for a non-wildlife photographer, a great way to get some close-up bird pictures (I’ve put the gannet pictures on a different gallery page on this site).
