New Zealand Geographic magazine's popular public outdoor photographic exhibition has stormed through The Mount, Taupo and Napier, Auckland's viaduct and International Airport.
The exhibition, which features forty-eight spectacular, large format images all printed on weather-proof material has been put together to celebrate 100 issues of the magazine and the release of a ‘best of’ hardback book.
“The images have all been published in the magazine and represent the career-best work of New Zealand’s leading photographers,” says James Frankham, editor of New Zealand Geographic.
“The images showcase some of the most extraordinary wildlife, landscapes and cultural aspects of our nation in an accessible format for the public to experience, enjoy and marvel at.”
The exhibition is touring the country and was featured on TV1’s Breakfast program towards the end of last year.
