Take Photos of Nature

Written By Kim Manunui

Capturing the beauty of nature in a photo can be a fun challenge! Seeing the beauty around you through the lens of a camera can make you look at things differently and notice small details that you might usually miss. We love taking photos of tiny things such as bugs and fungi that you might not see the beauty in due to their size. Once they are zoomed up on and made bigger, the colours and small details can be admired. Sometimes we even spot things that we didn’t notice were there at the time, such as tiny bugs inside the fungi. You can see the photos some of our students took on a fungi foray here and below. They learnt lots of tips from the photographer, one was that taking the photo from below the fungi, looking up at it, made it look a lot more interesting.

Pick up a camera, head out in nature, and take some nature photos that you can share with your friends, whānau and the wider community. Have fun!

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
