There are days when the photography gods work in your favour and this is one of them. This hawk has been around my neighbourhood for months and being quite uncooperative. And today it lands in the cedars of my backyard!
These needle sharp tweezers made it easy for me to remove some nearly invisible cactus spines from my fingers about a month ago. They should also work for removing splinters.

Vance Vivian fashion shoot, ca 1960, 1 /2-211189-F, K E Niven and Co. commercial negatives, Alexander Turnbull Library
It is always good to celebrate a successful Wellington business. Vance Vivian, Wellington’s very own specialty top-of-the-range men’s clothing store has just turned ninety. They are still going strong – setting the standards for sharp suits and other fine male fashion.
The firm was begun by Mt George Vance and Mr Harold Vivian in 1924. Vivian was bought out in the 1930s and since then the business has stayed in the Vance family. It is now owned and operated by the third-generation Vance brothers, Robert and Hamish.
The original store was up on the corner of Manners and Cuba streets, about where Banks Shoe Shop is now. Very soon a second shop was opened at the bottom end of Lambton Quay and, later, there were Vance Vivian shops in the Hutt, Masterton, Christchurch and Auckland. Nowadays the business is concentrated on the Lambton Quay shop, now up the other end of the Quay, opposite Cable Car Lane.
This fine photograph is part of a Vance Vivian men’s fashion shoot by the firm of K E Niven and company, one of Wellington’s foremost commercial photographers last century. It was a beautiful day and the models were photographed at various spots around the city. This elegant couple are posing with their glamour Jaguar on Clifton Terrace on Oriental Bay, gazing out over the harbour. You can see other scenes from the shoot below, up at the Museum, down at the Evans Bay boatyard and elsewhere.

These photos are from the first day of a month long European tour. We landed at London Heathrow at 6 a.m. after a 9.5 hour flight from SFO. I didn't want to go to sleep so the wife let me head to the Myrtle Avenue plane spotting field for a few hours. Rain showers were passing through but eventually cleared up. It was still cold and breezy but felt good to be outside. The odd thing was this was the first day of the British Airways pilots strike so very few BA flights were landing - that really reduced the amount of traffic landing.
I returned to the Premier Inn Terminal 4, grabbed the wife, and we went shopping and had dinner. By the time we got back to the room, runway alteration had taken place so now takeoffs were using 27L. Plane watching from the Premier Inn is great but it is a challenge to get clear, tack sharp photos since you shoot through two thick panes of glass. Any way to improve this?
I took these photos in early September 2019.

If you are looking for an island with great white sand beaches, clear water swimming and a little adventure, Sharp island is for you. Just a short trip from Sai Kung pier, this is a great getaway both for sun seekers and hikers – even better if you want both.

As you can see in the video it is not that easy to tell them apart.
Today was a big day for me. This is a tough hike, I used to do it with relative ease...20 years ago. In late September of this year I started out and could not get even 1/3 of the way up and started the walk of shame back down. Time for a change!
Since then, I have upped my weekly walking from 5 miles to 23 miles and changed over to a Keto diet. Twenty pounds are gone and I'm hoping for another thirty by my birthday in March. Something about hitting 50 maybe?
Wish I could say that it was an easy walk, but it wasn't... lots of huffing and puffing and I'm sore as Hell now. But hey... I did it!
Got some great pix at the summit!

This immature Sharp-shinned Hawk blew by me at a million miles an hour yesterday at Sunrise Mountain in New Jersey, USA.
At this angle, the best way to distinguish the bird from a juvenile Cooper's Hawk is that the markings on the belly extend down to the legs (vs about mid-belly on a Cooper's Hawk). An adult bird would have orange barring on the chest instead of streaking or spotting.
