#ThreeGoodThings today:

* New photography exhibition at Massey University (Wellington) - celebrating 50 years of photography education there (massey.ac.nz/about/news/photog).

* Driving the coast road between Paekākāriki and Pukerua Bay on a sunny winter's day - blue sea, blue sky, blue silhouette of the South Island.

* Realising I'd given Patreon the wrong deets, trying to get them to reverse their opaque decision to disable my account - and feeling 🤷 not 😰.

www.massey.ac.nzPhotography as relevant and popular as it was 50 years agoThe art of analogue photography, darkroom processing and developing prints is in high demand 50 years after the tertiary photography course was first offered to Wellington students in 1975.

We went to Midnight Espresso before an event we were attending this evening, and I was super tempted to stay there instead as their music selections were brilliant! 80s indie stuff - I didn't know all the songs or voices, but I recognised the band names for the ones I had to shazam. The ones I made note of were Siouxsie & the Banshees (Hong Kong Garden), Strawberry Switchblade (10 James Orr Street), The Jesus & Mary Chain (April Skies), Gang of Four (Damaged Goods), Type O Negative (Be My Druidess), Ciccone Youth (Into The Groovey), Tubeway Army and Gary Numan (Damaged Goods). Not a dud amongst them - best soundtrack to a cuppa in some time 😊
