Photographer’s Note

Maketu is world famous in the Bay of Plenty for its many varieties of meat pies. These include "Mussel" and the "Smoked Fish" pies. Such delicacies, pre-heated to scalding temperatures, are ideally suited to prevent hypothermia in crazy photographers who insist on walking up and down the beach in the teeth of a bitter Southerly gale. The locals insist that at the far end of the beach, by the mouth of the Kaituna River,the "best fishing in the world" is to be found.
