Sorry my mistake. You are of course correct, the term is 'shielded'. If you are in Auckland and have time there are some good shots to be had out on the west coast. There are rugged black sand surf beaches behind cliffs and rises (Piha). Travel time by car from Auckland city about 30/40 minutes

I am a mavic drone flyer in New Zealand. Hope you have a great time when you get here. You are not required to validate any flights with Airshare unless they are to take place in a restricted area. It's usefull to check the info about 'sheltered flights'. This category of flights will often...

Hi, I am in Auckland New Zealand. I hope the following helps: You are allowed to fly in Danger Areas, but it's important to consider the potential hazards associated with them. The most common hazards you may encounter in these areas include firearms, demolition activities, model aircraft, and...

I did/do the same. Use PTE AV Studio. I check out Barry Beckham's (Beckham Digital) postings and site often. He has been a great inspiration and I love his industrial montages. See jpg. Good luck with future projects.

Hi restyler, Great video. One of the best I've seen. Love sound tack and the very intersting captions. To be honest I prefer these industrial heritage topics to the usual 'nice scenery' flybys (although I'm mainly a 'nice scenery' shooter myself).

Julieanne Kost's (Adobe Ambassador) many, many tutorials on Lightroom are exceptional. I would strongly recommend to check them out.

Welcome from Auckland

The dam is for water suplly purposes, not for power generation. The big funnel is the overflow drain which exits below the dam into a river. The water is unusually low at the moment as we have had quite a dry spell

Thanks for sharing. Much better than my attempt at flying over the Huia Dam. More water in the dam than earlier, thank heavens.

They had grown old and were not faring well and posed a risk to the public. Once the native bush has regrown the place will belightful. Western Springs park is on a field of basaltic volcanic rock and was the source of early Auckland's water supply.

One of my favourite places in Auckland. Love the shot at the end of the Sky Tower sinking behind the crest of the hills.
