![]() ABOUT THIS GROUP | ![]() ABOUT ALLAN | ![]() Allan Bigham-Upper Nihotipu DamThis was completed in 1923, and while not a landscape, it sits comfortably in its environment. Well engineered objects have a beauty of their own. | ![]() Allan Bigham Manukau HarbourViewed from our home. The clouds are a beautiful representation of water.Perhaps our affinity for them is because we emerged from the water in primordial times! | ![]() Allan Bigham The Southern AlpsThe Southern Alps. Yes, more water in the form of clouds and snow. The sky has been darkened by red filtration, then desaturated. | ![]() Allan Bigham West coast beachNot wild but tranquil, shapes appealed. |

This is preferable, in my view, to using very slow shutter speeds and giving the water a “cottonwool” appearance. |
