About the event
Join me for a relaxed evening photo walk at Maungawhau / Mt Eden, capturing the area as the light changes from golden hour into sunset.
We’ll explore different spots around the mountain, looking for interesting compositions, perspectives and details before making our way towards the summit to capture Auckland at sunset.
This is a free community photography event, designed to be relaxed and social. Whether you're looking to practise your photography, try something different, or simply meet other photographers, you're welcome to join.
