Kia Ora!

Hey Guys,

I'm new to this forum, so I thought I'd introduce myself! I'm Mark, a photographer from New Zealand. I've had a camera since '00 and have been working in the industry since '03.

Thought I'd share some pics of mine from New Zealand, hope you enjoy!

I like your style! Welcome to the boards!

I would love to hear more about your country! New Zealand has always been mysterious and beautiful to me, though I have never been there. Then I saw the Lord of the Rings trilogy and it drove the beauty of the place home :)

Have fun exploring the site and contributing and learning. It is a great place to be.

Thanks for the welcome Rick, hope you can make it down here one day!

Welcome aboard. Very nice way to introduce yourself. Beautiful images of your country. I love 4 and 5. Hope you will become a regular here and share lots more images with us.

Hi Mark,

Great first post. I especially like "Kuaotunu Beach at Dawn" and would be displaying that on my wall had I shot it!

Welcome to the Pr.com family!

Hi and welcome, Mark! Nice shots, they have a definite style to them and it looks great.

So is New Zeland going to take the America's Cup home next year? :)

Thanks for your comments guys! Will definitely keep posting!

I'm sorry, I don't know of an Americas Cup? There was a sailing regatta that used to be known as The New Zealand Cup we hosted a few years back, but then some Swiss fellows stole it....

hahahaha, Yeah, I certainly hope Team NZ can get the Americas cup back off Alinghi!

Ha! And which "Swiss" guy was that? I thought I heard that he had a NZ mailing address. Hope you had a chance to see it, because after next year it will be back in the USA... :)
