Headland and tree(perhaps in the Mahurangi, where we owned a section in the seventies?)
Bronwyn was looking around the basement of my parents's house when she stumbled on an old disposable plastic camera from God knows when. My father promptly gave it to her, and my brother-in-law Greg, who likes old film equipment and stuff like that, took it in to be developed.
Here are the results. I have to say that I really like them a lot: the fact that one can only vaguely make out what's been photographed (let alone why) -- the uncertainty of era (we suspect mid to late 70s), or even geographical location. Some are clearly in New Zealand, others in Australia, but the ones with snow in them might even date from our family trip to Europe in 1981, for all I know ...
Mahurangi again?
No idea.But is that snow on the branches and off in the distance?
A rocky headland somewhere(West Coast? Karekare?)
The same headland from above(perhaps Browns Island, where we moored our boat on one occasion?)
What looks like a snowy village - somewhere
More snow(Perhaps Polbain, in Scotland?)
This statue of the mare and her foal comes (I'm pretty sure)from the Sydney botanical gardens
[from left to right: ]my brother Jim, my father with the hat, my sister, me, my brother Ken ...
Presumably my mother is taking the photo
Circular Quay in Sydney?Somewhere with ferries, anyway
A little car in the foreground, and behind ...surely those must be the spires of the Sydney Opera House?)
