Description My first time shooting Shag Rock (now known locally as Shag Pile) since the earthquake. That's it on the left, you'd be forgiven for not recognizing it now, it's changed a bit... For a comparison try [link] titled "Enduring". Haha that title has become more than a little ironic, hasn't it?


All comments and feedback welcome

Edit: So stoked to get a DD, thanks Anoya! You're awesome Usually I'd thank everyone that gives me a fav, but 2000 people is WAY too many. So thanks everyone who faved or commented, or is yet to do so

How close to Christchurch is this beach? I swam with dolphins in Kiakura (I think that's the place name.)

Nearly, it's Kaikoura Pretty close, like 20 mins drive from town... Still in Christchurch really.

Looks absolutely amazing.. definitely worth getting up for, even if it were 3am in the morning haha.
And such a difference after the quake... wow.

GregArps In reply to slimeyy [2011-06-07 11:24:52 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Haha luckily not a 3am start for this one though, more like 5am Crazy difference between the two aye.

slimeyy In reply to GregArps [2011-06-07 12:58:01 +0000 UTC]

Still rather early I reckon
And yes, it's strange to see how even massive rocks like that can be changed in a matter of seconds. But in New Zealand nature will always keep surprising you!

Haha yeah photography is pretty much the only thing that I'll willingly force myself outta bed for at that time of morning. Yes it most certainly will... New Zealand or elsewhere!

Thanks! Yeah just checked out the shots you put up, looks like a perfectly flat gray sky... the worst kind when you're at the beach! I know what that's like. Oh well... you can only try again
