Couple of my B Side Photos
I simply love the look and feel of a links course in Autumn. Green ribbons of fairways engulfed literally in straw coloured rough. Wonderful contrasts. This image was taken on the 17th Paraparaumu Beach. A split fairway this captures a lone golfer taking the challenging lower fairway surrounded by a sea of fescue and browntop.
In March this year Paraparaumu Beach hosted the GCA Boomerang. Fun couple of days with some really good people.
In September I had a week in Melbourne playing some golf. This photo was taken after a great day down with fellow GCA'er Ben Jarvis at his wonderful 13th Beach. I took this photo whilst on the phone back to NZ capturing the 18th on the "beach" course - camera in one hand whilst on the phone in my other hand I was feining to my wife that I was having a terrible time and missed her dearly.
Finally, another catch up with some GCA'ers and Australian based Paraparaumu Beach members at Kingston Heath. Mick Morcom and his sandbelt bunkering are simply the best and again I love the sandbelts excellent contrasts of colour which always make for interesting photos.
