    Last year I was the surprised recipient of the Marti Friedlander Photographic Award. Supported by the Arts Foundation, the Award is presented every two years to an established photographer with a record of excellence and potential to continue working at high levels.

    Aware of the fantastic work being produced by other photographers in New Zealand, I felt privileged to be selected by Marti for this honour.

    Going Solo

    Neil says:

    A few years back I injured my knee playing touch rugby and was instructed by my doctor to stop running for a year. While the thought of becoming a couch potato who watched sport, but didn’t participate was appealing, I was encouraged to get on a bike again by a couple of my workmates who were keen cyclists.

    My business partner Matthew sold me a beautiful Colnago Olympic Master at a very reasonable price (If you’re a cyclist you will recognise the pedigree of this bike – far too good for a beginner). So I was more than set to go – but what to wear?
