This was a bittersweet project. It was bitter because my family lived in New Zealand for five years and I miss the gorgeous landscapes shown in these images and I miss the great friends I made there. The motorcycle image was taken on a great, little curvy road on Banks Peninsula near Christchurch. I've ridden that road on a motorcycle many times and I miss that road. It was sweet because it was great imagery created in an amazing country by a great team of creative folks. One of those folks is my good friend Lee Howell, the photographer. But, the sweet wins out in the end. I got to live in New Zealand for five years. How sweet is that?
