We haven't posted anything for awhile, it has been a busy year - finishing our book Volcanic Kitchens among other projects. The last job for 2011 was for Te Arawa Fisheries, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The carved panels in the meeting room are over 100 years old and made for an awesome backdrop for their corporate portraits. Promise to post more frequently in 2012, wishing you all a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

If you’re not afraid, you’re not doing anything worthwhile!

A good, albeit, freezing cold day rafting down the Kaituna River.  We all had alot of fun with only one tipped out (guess who?) and one 'nearly' broken nose - next time lets do it on a hot day in summer.

Charles and I worked together many years ago at Air New Zeland Flight Catering.  He invited me along to take still images of himself and Paul Mercurio while they were filming the cooking show Mercurio's Menu, for Australian Televiosn, in Whakarewarewa recently.  On the menu was freshly caught Rotoiti rainbow trout served with Maori herbs and vegetables and soda bread.  It was a beautiful day in Rotorua, Shannon and staff at  Whakarewarewa Thermal Village were great and everyone enjoyed themselves.  Click here to view some more images.

Another of Chase Jarvises brillant Projects "DASEIN". At last count there had been over ten thousand images submitted. Check out the you tube clip and see if you can find my image.
Come and join in!

Hi Guys, nice meeting you on the Ferry, what a great crossing.
Hope you like your Photo!

Jo & Brian, thank you for a lovely time yesterday.  The weather didn't fully co-operate but we were all still able to enjoy the fantastic view from the restaurant. You are both great together and we would like to wish you both all the very best, Gerhard & Henri
