AOTEAROA LIGHT takes readers on a journey through the wondrous and varied landscapes of Aotearoa/New Zealand’s wilderness, through photographs that catch the light, and experiences and reflections that explore our role within Earth’s connected ecosystem.
Concerned about the challenges our warming planet brings, author Peter Laurenson presents images of Aotearoa/New Zealand that convey the benefits of wilderness; reminders of what we must protect and nourish, if humanity is to thrive.
Peter has been a member of NZAC since 2002.
He is editor of the Federated Mountain Clubs’ Backcountry. Peter also writes for Wilderness magazine, and sometimes other publications including NZAC’s Journal, FMC’s online magazine Wilderlife and the photographic community Excio’s magazine Captivating Photography.
During the past 30 years Peter has tramped, climbed and photographed extensively throughout Aotearoa New Zealand. The website www.occasionalclimber.co.nz showcases his mountain and travel adventures.
Peter will have books available for purchase: $69.99.
