Album Description:
Today I drove to Portobello, a small satellite village about 20 minutes from my Dunedin home. The morning was clear and still, and the tide was right for photographs. These are high res images, and it would be worth taking the time to view the slideshow.

Hello Kelvin, Your photography is quite stunning, the color and composition is very artistic. As an oil painter, I am especially inspired by small, colorful boats and their reflections. It is one of my favorite subjects to paint. Your "Moored Boat" series from Portobello really caught my eye and I wonder if you might allow me to paint one? If so, I'd be happy to send you a signed print of the finished painting. Also, hope to visit New Zealand soon. Please visit my website if you'd like to see samples of my paintings: wwwtomswimmfineart.com Thank you, I look forward to seeing more of your photos. Regards, Tom in California.

This is lovely Kelvin, bought back memories of trip to Careys Bay and Port Charmers when we visted family in Dunedin... So many wonderful scenes you have there to go loose with your camera ... Dunedin itself is charming too. I will return everytime I miss home to see where you have been .. I recently found and uploaded some photos I took when I was home last but cannot remember what most of the places are, if you can help it would be appreicated ..Keep those home photos coming .. your awesome...Shirley

It was a great pleasure to view the slideshow. The photos were lovely. Intriguing how just a little movement of the picture brings it to life so dramatically. I could feel what it would be like to reach out and touch the feathers of the seagull -- the cool soft feathers and the radiating heat coming from within. Really soft and wonderful. Also imagined the feel of the beak as he tried to peck. These photos are powerful. It was a nice experience early in the morning. Thank you. Brigitte

You have so many really great reflection shots here. Reflections are enjoyable to shoot and delightful to view. I noted one of your pier photos made a perfect arrow to the left due to reflection. Your avian shots are excellent, especially the close-ups. This is a very lovely album of a gorgeous village!! - Best regards from Western Michigan, DeeAnne

I love the crisp-ness of your images, evoking the morning chill and stillness. Reminded me of the beauty of Connemara, Glendalough and Lough Leane in Killarney National Park - different but equally breathtaking. You have a new Aussie admirer :)

You have caught the time right. Each and all of the photos are 5***** quality. The captures and compositions are the top characteristics in this album. The slideshow was amazing. Thank you for sharing. My recently posted album 'Algonquin Park Getaway' is on a similar footing. Regards from Paul in Ontario, Canada.
