OK, first up for 2020.

Tuatara beer in the Qantas lounge, Auckland.

OK we were supposed to go to Wellington but it was windy. So we had some free beer, wine and cake and flew back later.

 I don't keyword before upload, so this instant QC does change the mindset a bit now that there's no longer a day to wait.

Like Rico above, scanning (well, someone else is for me) old stuff, from the 90s into the 00s.

 

Always wanted to have a photograph that was high contrast showing a jazz musician, and managed to find one in my archive !

During the gloomy winter months, I often go back through my old files in search of any "hidden gems" that I might have overlooked. Last week, I came across this shot of a deserted beach on Big Corn Island in Nicaragua that for some reason I had never processed. Kinda wish I was there now...
