		<description><![CDATA[I went through all those earthquake drills as a youngster and when I needed them at 4.35 am this morning just lay in bed trying to wake up, wondering why the whole house was jumping around! Luckily no real damage here, images from Christchurch looking rather surreal though with many older buildings partially crumbling.

		<description><![CDATA[Whenever there is something interesting going on in Methven, if I go I usually can&#8217;t help but take a camera and do some visual push-ups.  I just enjoy photographing nearly everything (except weddings). These photos don&#8217;t usually have any apparent use &#8211; so I&#8217;m thinking about making a home for them on my website, sort <a href='http://billirwinarts.com/blog/?p=360'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At the moment I&#8217;m scanning some photos from my fathers collection for a book he has written, and came across this one: his parent&#8217;s wedding day exactly 100 years ago in 1910. I&#8217;m pleasantly surprised at what good condition the print is in, and how well it was photographed, no doubt with a large plate <a href='http://billirwinarts.com/blog/?p=350'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am back home, trying to readjust to another frozen Methven winter, and assimilate an overdose of creative stimulation gained from a 2500 km road trip over 23 days in southeast Australia.  As much as we kiwis like to &#8216;compete&#8217; with our neighbours across the ditch we have no match for the amount of artwork <a href='http://billirwinarts.com/blog/?p=342'>[...]</a>]]></description>

I haven&#8217;t quite figured out the disconnect of what I personally find interesting, and what the average tourist here does (or is steered <a href='http://billirwinarts.com/blog/?p=329'>[...]</a>]]></description>
