The Napoleonic Guide

The Napoleonic Guide

Richard Moore has always been fascinated by the era of Napoleon Bonaparte and when he couldn't find enough about the era on the internet he built a website on it.

News Pictures

Usually being armed with a camera or two I have been able to get some pretty interesting images while travelling around.

 

 

Christchurch after the Quakes

Christchurch is rebuilding itself after being badly damaged by earthquakes. Richard Moore spent some time in the city to see how the work is progressing.

Editing Services

If you need fast, accurate and professional editing services for your documents or press releases then look no further. 35 years of newspaper editing speaks for itself.

The Rena Oil Disaster

Hundreds of photos of New Zealand's worst environmental disaster caused by the container ship Rena running aground off Papamoa Beach.

The Fall of the Berlin Wall

In November 1989 the symbol of the Cold War between communism and the West was breached. Richard Moore flew to Berlin from London to document what he saw.

The Troubles

In 1988 Richard Moore spent a month in Belfast. While there he got a close up view of The Troubles including a handgrenade and pistol attack at an IRA funeral.

TikiTouring.co.nz

In 2004 Richard Moore began work on his New Zealand travel website TikiTouring. It has more than 2000 pages of photos and information on where to go and what to do in New Zealand.

 

The Cook Islands

A paradise on Earth is the best way to describe the Cook Islands. Richard Moore visited in 2011 and built a travel website highlighting the best things to see on Rarotonga and the Cook Islands.

12 Hours on a Weekend

A few images of Auckland late on Saturday night, then early on Sunday morning. I will be expanding on this series as I get the opportunities.

 

GO GEELONG! GO MANLY!

I'm expecting big things this year from the mighty Manly Sea Eagles who I hope will add to their two recent premierships.

Geelong is rebuilding after a brilliant three flags in five years but are showing signs of being a force to be reckoned with in 2013.

Go the Cats!
