‘The lazy geologist’, taken in 2013 during my first year of working. The site is located in Gulf Harbour, Auckland, and I was on site to log machine borehole core and complete a few hand auger tests. There just happened to be a couple of comfy seats on the property for me to have lunch and take in the views of Auckland city and Rangitoto Island.
