About Me
- Brett Payne
- Tauranga, New Zealand
- Originally trained and worked as a geologist, I now work as a museum professional. My passion is old photographs, the photographers who took them, the equipment and technologies they used, the people and scenes in the photos, and the stories behind them. http://photo-sleuth.blogspot.com/ I'm also an avid hiker and naturalist, and have walked four Caminos in northern Spain ... so far
