Auckland Light
Photographs by Richard Douglas 31 August - 12 October 2023
Richard Douglas
Auckland Light is a selection of photographs taken in Auckland. The light over the city changes constantly, greatly altering the appearance of even the most familiar landscapes. These photographs are of moments when the light is changing. Their taking has been a great joy for Richard and he hopes that the prints in this exhibition may provide enduring pleasure.
Richard graduated from the School of Medicine of the University of Auckland in 1985. Like all the undergraduates of that era, he was charged no tuition fees and lived in a city that was relatively inexpensive. Proceeds from the sale of these photographs will help students who, facing the very different economic conditions of today, can find themselves in financial difficulties.
Richard would like to thank Aston Song of Progear for his superb printing of these images and Sally Souness of Parnell Gallery for her expert framing.
All proceeds from the sale of prints (excluding printing and framing costs), go to The Waterloo Foundation NZ, a charitable Trust established for supporting education in medicine and the health sciences at The University of Auckland.
