Kia ora from Aotearoa New Zealand

Posted November 23, 2024Nov 23

Kia ora koutou - Hello everybody

I've just joined Waterpixels, I was previously a member of Wetpixel. I'm a marine scientist living in northeastern New Zealand, and I got into underwater photography in 2018. Haven't done much recently but I am now really inspired to get back into again. Thanks for setting up Waterpixels to continue keeping everybody connected.

Cheers

James.
