Auckland Transport (AT), in partnership with the Howick Local Board and the NZ Transport Agency, constructed a new ferry pontoon and pier at the end of Ara-Tai to the southern side of the Sealink terminal at Half Moon Bay. 

The AT project team worked closely with mana whenua on the pier design and the structure incorporates elements of local interest including items which reference mana whenua values. 

This was the first of two ferry terminals I photographed exclusively with a Canon 24mm tilt-shift lens. 

Such was the lines of the structure, dictated by its need to extend well out into the channel when the tide was out, that only a panoramic view would express its beauty. Combine that with the evening light and the magical led lighting along its breadth and it came alive.

"Light is like music to my eyes."

Vaughan Scott is an award-winning cameraman, accomplished in all genre of the media and a professional photographer. His career spans more than 50 years and has taken him all over the world. With a 37-year television background that started in the black and white era, he has captured significant world events in some of the most challenging locations. His visual storytelling abilities are exceptional and have stood him in good stead operating his own business these past fourteen years.

“As a television cameraman, I travelled to over 50 countries capturing stories of major world events. I have experienced the slums of Kenya, the war-torn streets of Iraq, the devastating aftermath of both 911 and hurricane Katrina. I moved among the mourning crowds paying tribute to Princess Diana, the victorious crowds celebrating Obamas’ Presidential Election and a gun-fueled funeral parade through Gaza city. Life through the viewfinder has trained my eye to capture the perfect frame. What began as a teenage photographer developed into a lifelong passion.”
