After quite a bit of effort I’ve reprocessed the Wellington region to re-colour and adjust the brightness. You can see here the difference in brightness as one of the tiles isn’t fully done on the right: This has removed a… Read More ›

Wellington has some strong colours
So I’m cleaning up a few areas. Mostly around Auckland Airport which is a pain. I’ve had to hybrid the tile between different sources. In the end I made the seam over Otahuhu as that’s the narrowest part of the… Read More ›

WIP – Bay of Plenty
A few more shots from around the north east of Lake Taupo. You can see Kaingaroa forest. A very large forestry plantation. I’ve also include a photo from space which shows there’s still some colour changes, but this is mostly… Read More ›
