The Campfighter

You may remember - if you're a regular reader - that back in June, while doing a wee advertisement for the latest New Zealand Journal of Photography, I stated "I hear the next issue of the Journal is going to be a pretty special one too - due September I think."

Well it is out. Or at least it was in my post box earlier today, so it should be in all good magazine shops shortly - and of course what makes them good is that they hold the Journal.

How special is it I hear you ask. Well you only need to check out the cover.


And maybe the contents page.


Okay so maybe the image isn't big enough. Look harder!!

(Or if you hadn't realised, you can click on the image and it opens bigger, cool huh?!)

Oh yeah there's some crap (joking!!) by/about other people too but you get that.

So anyways enough of that.

I would like to thank David Langman at the NZCP for recognising my greatness. And extra special thanks and love and kisses etc to Katy Corner (Guest editor) who chose to include my work, and Mark Amery for writing such sumptuous words (of course you'll have to buy a copy to find out how sumptuous).

I'd also like to thank my family for all their support, James, Catherine, David and everyone else; Brian, the director; the producers, Gary, Larry, and Barry; the actors in the show who clearly weren't as good as me cos otherwise they'd be up here; the other actors who were up against me - they can't help that they're losers; Paris Hilton for you know what; my good friend Graham and his guitar; and of course God (and maybe Bob Pollard).

Twilight campfighter
You build your fire into an open wound
You want us to feel better
On these darker trails
With light revealing holy grails
To hike through dangerous weather
You need twilight eyes

I wasn't previously aware of the journal but I'll be on the lookout for it.
