Since the beginning of the Covid-19 Level 4 lockdown, I've been taking photos with my cellphone (nothing fancy, just a Nokia 5) in the suburbs of Khandallah, Raroa, and Johnsonville - all within walking distance of my house. I'm not the designated shopper in our bubble, so I've used the waiting time to poke around in places I wouldn't normally go (for fear of being suspected of 'casing the joint') when things are running normally and there are more people about. Below: cellphone photos taken in Khandallah during the Covid-19 Alert Level 4 lockdown period. My other series 'Our Bubble' is here. Below: slide show of cellphone photos taken in Johnsonville and Raroa during the Covid-19 Alert Level 4 lockdown period.

"For two years leading up to the centenary of the Spanish Flu of 1918, a group of volunteers sought out and cleaned the graves of the 667 people who died of the flu and are buried in Karori Cemetery. For an open day, in November 2018, each grave was marked with a white cross. The crosses are still there, some marking graves that have no headstone - a testimony to the importance of our fight against disease."
