Photoessay: Bethells Beach

Much of Dave Dobbyn's album TWIST was written or inspired by the rugged Bethells Beach (or Te Henga) on Auckland's west coast. Keen photographer and Umm mailing list member Chris Jack took the following photos of the landscape at Bethells.

There are eight photographs to load, so be patient, it might take a few minutes!

On the seventh wave rides my aspirations- It Dawned On Me

The marble sand of sculptors- Betrayal

The black dunes hiss with the grasses' breath- It Dawned On Me

It's performance art and it's framed by a house- Naked Flame

Will you deliver me? Whatever it was it was my sin- Protection

The wind had sculpted the manuka on the hill to the west of the house- What do You Really Want?

And I'm kinda getting used to the wilderness- I Can't Change My Name

I've been out, I've been out in the long grass and the wind- I Can't Change My Name
