Faces of New Zealand order quantity

NZ$ 45.00 each
Paperback
Author: Brian Curtis
Published by: New Holland Publishers (NZ) Ltd

A photographic celebration of the people of New Zealand by renowned photographer Brian Curtis.

While there is a huge number of books around that showcase the many landscapes of our country, few have taken the opportunity to celebrate our people.
Faces of New Zealand captures more than 100 images of Kiwis from all over the country and from all walks of life, taking us inside the lives of the locals. Each photo is accompanied by a brief explanatory caption, providing context and commentary. An introduction reflects on the photographic style of portraiture and what inspired the book's photographs.
A 'how to take portrait photographs' section at the back of the book provides tips and suggestions for aspiring photographers.

Author: Verena & Georg Popp
Published by: Craig Potton Publishing

New Zealand Journey is a collection of stunning New Zealand photographs presenting a genuinely fresh and original view of the New Zealand landscape. With so many photographers at work in this country, this is a surprisingly difficult task, rarely achieved. Austrian photographers Georg Popp and Verena Hacker have managed this, through a determination to find new and interesting compositions of well-known places, and also through persistence, often waiting days for the right conditions to make a single image. This book covers all of New Zealand, focusing entirely on the natural world, and includes all of the much-visited scenic icons, including the Far North, Rotorua, Tongariro National Park, Taranaki, Abel Tasman National Park, the length of the South Island's West Coast, Fiordland, Stewart Island, The Catlins, Dunedin, Kaikoura and the Marlborough Sounds. Popp and Hackner's work is distinguished by their careful and expert use of large ... more

Hardback
Author: Craig Potton
Published by: Craig Potton Publishing
In Stock: 3
Lost in New Zealand is a new release from pre-eminent New Zealand photographer Craig Potton, in the popular New Zealand pictorial genre. In a deliberate move away from the highly commercial photography of the likes of New Zealand Aotearoa, Craig is presenting images from his photo library with a more subtle and sophisticated take on the landscape. Influenced by recent photography trips to Iceland and Nepal, and the success of his newly-opened Arrowtown gallery, Craig is keen to make available his less-known but more personal photography, meeting the expectations of tourists and locals alike whose tastes in landscape photography are wider than a book of solely postcard-style pictures. Art and literature is full of metaphors of those who become either emotionally, physically, or spiritually 'lost' in the wilderness. Through this journey, they are able to find a sense of calm within themselves, and learn to appreciate the sublime ... more

Paperback
Author: Dave Cull (photography Otago Daily Times)
Published by: Shoal Bay Press
In Stock: 2
In Big Weather South, author Dave Cull features the dramatic big weather that comes our way: the floods, the strong winds, the droughts, the hoar frosts and snow, the big seas. He also covers the major influences on the New Zealand climate, our position in global circulation and the affects caused by being surrounded by a large area of ocean. He describes how fog, frost, and thunder storms are caused. Cull traverses not only the coastal regions, the mountains and hill country, but also investigates the plains and basins, such as the Maniototo and Cromwell Basin.

First published October 2009.

Winner, 2000 Montana NZ Book Awards (Environment section).

Classic Tramping in New Zealand is a beautifully photographed and sensitively written tribute to twelve classic New Zealand tramping trips. A sister volume to the best-selling Classic Walks of New Zealand, this book covers tramps that are more challenging than the best known tracks, but which typify the essential New Zealand tramping experience. The twelve trips described range from moderate three-day tramps to more challenging multi-day adventures for the more experienced trampers. They include such North Island classics as the Tararua Peaks and the Kaweka/Kaimanawa Traverse and well known South Island tramps such as Nelson Lakes to Lewis Pass, the Three Passes in Arthur's Pass and the Dusky Track in Fiordland National Park. In addition the book also provides up-to-date information, route summaries and descriptive maps to create a must-have book for all ... more
