Blur

Photo of the Sky Tower as seen across Victoria Park in Auckland City, the top of the tower shrouded by fog.

Blurry on the edge
waking on Wednesday mornings
classic hangover

Photo of a high rise in Auckland city on the left, a traffic light on the right, and a single leafless tree in between.

A concrete jungle
humanity’s Frankenstein
occasional tree

Trees

Photo of a row of large leafless trees by the footpath in a park, photographed before sunrise.

Giant-limbed monsters
early mornings in the park
terrified of trees.

Glassy

Photo of the sunrise reflecting on glassy, ocean waves.

Broken shards of glass
sun rises, catching the cracks—
short, sharp morning waves.

Rise

Photo of the sun rising on a winter day, over the beach the sea shells glinting in the light.

Heavy fog rises
fireball erupts in the sky
tiny shells sparkle
