Murawai: A Photography Essay

I visited Murawai on a dark and wild day. I believe it was a Tuesday. A friend was celebrating a birthday. There is no better way to welcome in a new age then with wild salty winds and the smell of bird poo from the gannets who roost here.

The somber and lonely feeling of standing on Murawai Beach.

The wind made for a perfect day for the windsurfers.
