Good day for the hawk ... bad day for the grosbeak. A harsh reality that plays out every day in the life of a wild creature. Out of nowhere this guy struck like lightning and I was lucky to manage one quick shot before it was off into the timber with its prey. My best guess is sharp-shinned but I'm no expert on these guys

39C again this afternoon so a good time to stay in and tweak a few shots from the vaults.
Across the road from the white-fenced horse ranch is this barbed-wired fence full of lush greenery, thanks to well-above-normal rainfall this season. It's quite amazing what we can now shoot using today's modern zoom lenses. I took these two "green" shots from the same spot, and only adjusted focal length and focus. Same scene but different subjects.
This image is "sharp", the subject being the barbed-wire fence.

This was surprisingly pivotal in the fixing up of the drain I worked on this afternoon.
(And I rather like the texture of the cut side.)

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.
