Auckland

Auckland sits on top of more than fifty volcanoes, most of them asleep now under gardens and rugby fields, grown up between two harbours that rarely calm down at the same time. The city photographed here isn't the skyline. It's the black sand at Te Henga, the light on Judges Bay in the last hour before dark, the parts of home you only notice by staying still.
