Kotuku- Max is still a one man dog but can be coaxed with a pie! :thumbsup:
EeeBee's- the stoves are fantastic. If I ever built a house it would be around a wood stove.
Crays, Kina and Paua. Have you got a king and queen visiting?
Nice paua what part of the country are you from
North IslandQuote:

Tim, your living the dream mate, cant beat eating from mother nature, fresh too!, is your stove a 'Aga', tried cooking on them a few times, i have not 'mastered' it yet!!!!!!!
That one is a Rayburn. If I could offer tips for cooking on woodstoves (I'm not really qualified to give cooking tips) the first would be allow time. They are not as instant as electric or gas ovens. We need to learn how to "drive" them. For mine there is distinct ways to either get the oven ready or get the hot plates cranking- especially as there is a water booster working against me initially. Position in the oven is also huge as to what you are trying to achieve. I am no Ramsey (though I can swear better and with more passion) but I do mean scones and most roasts aren't to shabby using the woodstove.Quote:

Fire = Flavour!
Yes but soot is not good on lamb.Quote:

Nice Bag
I'm certainly enjoying these photos.
Good stuff tim!
Other parts of the World Wide Web could use a bit of quality photog too :thumbsup:
Most of these pics have done that loop Jrobs, so a bit of a reflection before delving into unpublished one's. Hope I can find a few worthy......:DQuote:

This one hasn't been on the internet. It is a very special bird/ trip/ picture to me. During my search I realised just what a terrible web I have weaved with my photo's. http://img542.imageshack.us/img542/3...eastern090.jpg
I must have one with a swan and a pukeko retrieve but I am done looking :omg: :D I found another folder within a folder of previously used pics that I hadn't sifted through for this thread. I need a system, well a better one!
Tim do you do any shooting with an actual gun. With all these photo it doesnt seem like you would have time.
White rock, tora, nin non bay, cape palliser, ngawea by the look of it?Quote:

Max is a gem for sure Rushy. There are a few rough edges as I am no professional trainer. He is a natural hunter that I have tried to place controls on and I have also tried to teach him some etiquite. He is definetly an extention of my capabilities. My previous dog (Jack) got run over three weeks before the season and I soon worked out how many places I rely on a good dog to hunt.Quote:
