Come and join us for the launch of Aotearoa Light by Peter Laurenson, published by Bateman Books. Light, for landscape photographers, is the element that makes all the difference. Dawn and dusk are known as the ‘magic hours’ for good reason. The interplay between sun, cloud and landscape can bring magic at other times of the day too. And when light is shed figuratively it can bring clarity, insight, wonder and realisation.

Concerned about the challenges our warming planet brings, photographer, tramper and occasional climber Peter Laurenson presents stunning images of Aotearoa New Zealand that convey the benefits of our wilderness; reminders of what we must protect and nourish if humanity is to thrive.

Hosted by New Zealand Alpine Club Canterbury Section at The Cashmere Club, 50 Colombo Street.
