Taradale P Lab

18.11.11

A normally quiet Taradale street was filled with Police and Fire vehicles as a P-Lab was discovered and then made safe. Concerns over safety meant the bomb squad was called in to check the property out before the clean up could begin. Photos are on SNPA.

The Running Man

Don’t you hate it when you’re at the opposite end of the street to the action! Waiting at a roadblock while the police searched for a suspect in the stabbing of a dairy owner I managed to get two frames as he ran across the street.

That’s a major crop. From over 500m away I cropped the 12mpx, 4000+pixel image to 880 pixels to submit. But a huge crop is better than no pic. The Dominion Post blew it up huge for their front page, to the point it fell apart. The HB Today ran it front page but slight smaller so it still looked OK.
