Liquor<br />
decision<br />
could go<br />
to appeal<br />
• By Bridget Rutherford<br />
LIQUORLAND IS considering<br />
whether to appeal a decision that<br />
rejected its application to open<br />
a store in Phillipstown after the<br />
community rallied to stop it<br />
going ahead.<br />
The district licensing committee<br />
declined the Liquorland<br />
application to operate a bottle<br />
store on the corner of Ferry and<br />
Aldwins Rds.<br />
Liquorland has until <strong>May</strong> 30 to<br />
appeal it.<br />
Chief executive Brendon Lawry<br />
said Liquorland was “disappointed”<br />
with the committee’s<br />
decision and was considering its<br />
options regarding an appeal.<br />
The decision came after objections<br />
by health officials, residents,<br />
police and nearby Linwood College.<br />
The application came from Steve<br />
Crotty and Michael Scott, who<br />
also own Liquorland Riccarton.<br />
They said the store would also<br />
service Ferrymead to Sumner.<br />
In its decision, the committee<br />
acknowledged the pair had more<br />
than 20 years of experience and<br />
their systems and staff training<br />
were of a high standard.<br />
But it said the seller could not<br />
control how the alcohol was<br />
consumed.<br />

RANGI KING got the traditional surfer<br />
send-off on Saturday.<br />
Fellow surfers gathered just off the north<br />
ramp at Brighton to farewell the well-liked<br />
42-year-old who succumbed to liver cancer<br />
recently.<br />
Rangi was one of the better surfers to come to of the region. A<br />
professional whose career took off in the late 80s.<br />
He finished a close second to Australian legend Mark Occhilupo<br />
at the Konica All Stars skin contest at Wollongong, near Sydney.<br />
Rangi started surfing at 11 and was a natural.<br />
EXIT Surf Shop owner Tristan Bennett said no one had heard<br />
of him before he went and competed in a Canterbury Scholastic<br />
Surfing competition when he was 13 and “blew everyone away.”<br />
Rangi got the farewell he deserved at the weekend.<br />

Smith St chosen for pool site<br />
A LOCATION has been chosen<br />
for the Linwood-Woolston pool.<br />
The Linwood Ave and Smith<br />
St corner site was finalised on<br />
Wednesday by the Linwood-<br />
Central-Heathcote Community<br />
Board.<br />
The board considered 487 submissions<br />
from the public, with<br />
the clear majority favouring the<br />
Smith St site.<br />
“The response to this process<br />
has shown us that the community<br />
is really<br />
on the same<br />
page as the city<br />
council when<br />
it comes to this<br />
project,” said<br />
chairwoman<br />
Sally Buck.<br />
Sally Buck<br />
“The council<br />
went through<br />
a thorough site selection process,<br />
and identified 141 Smith St,<br />
which is on a section next to<br />
Linwood Park that faces onto<br />
Linwood Ave, as the best location<br />
for a pool.”<br />
She said as the majority<br />
favoured the site, it made the<br />
board’s final decision “very<br />
easy.”<br />
“When we went out with the<br />
options, people were also able to<br />
suggest other sites they thought<br />
might be suitable, and 89 per<br />
TOP SPOT: The old nursery site at Linwood Park, on the corner of Linwood Ave and Smith St,<br />
will be the location for the new Linwood Woolston Pool. <br />
cent of submitters came back in<br />
favour of our preferred site.”<br />
Submitters said the accessibility<br />
of the location for local<br />
schools and the public, and the<br />
opportunity to create a social<br />
space in the area, were the main<br />
reasons for the choice.<br />
“We’ve received plenty of<br />
food for thought through the<br />
submissions, including how<br />
we can make sure we keep the<br />
tennis courts at Linwood Park,<br />
and overall the message was our<br />
community wants this facility<br />
right here and wants us to get<br />
started straight away,” Ms Buck<br />
said.<br />
The next step is for the city<br />
council to produce a concept<br />
design that will show how the facility<br />
looks and what it features.<br />
This design will be developed<br />
with feedback and input from<br />
the wider community and key<br />
stakeholders, including Linwood<br />
Rugby League and South<br />
Brighton Tennis Club.<br />
The design process will begin<br />
later this year.<br />

What is the process for naming roads?<br />
Heathcote<br />
Ward city<br />
councillor Sara<br />
Templeton<br />
explains<br />
the process<br />
behind road<br />
naming in the city<br />
THERE’S BEEN some<br />
discussion within these pages<br />
recently about the naming of a<br />
new street in Heathcote Valley –<br />
Kairuri Lane.<br />
It’s clear from comments<br />
that the city council’s processes<br />
around road naming are opaque,<br />
so I thought I’d have a go at<br />
explaining them, using this one<br />
as an example.<br />
Under the city council’s roads<br />
and right-of-way naming policy,<br />
the names considered for new<br />
roads must be requested by the<br />
developer, who puts forward<br />
three for consideration. The<br />
community board is then able to<br />
either approve a name or not.<br />
In this instance the developer<br />
had requested that Reynard Lane<br />
be approved by the Linwood-<br />
Central-Heathcote Community<br />
Board, but the board<br />
had concerns that it wasn’t in<br />
keeping with other historic street<br />
MEANING: The choice of the name ‘Kairuri Lane’ for a new subdivision on Bridle Path Rd has<br />
attracted controversy.<br />
names in the area, so asked the<br />
developer to present some other<br />
options.<br />
He did and came back at the<br />
following meeting with Reynard<br />
Lane as his preferred option,<br />
then Abney Lane (named for<br />
an old surveying tool) and also<br />
Kairuri Lane (the Maori word for<br />
surveyor).<br />
He had consulted with Mahaanui<br />
Kurataiao Ltd, a resource<br />
and environmental advisory<br />
group, which agreed that the<br />
name ‘Kairuri’ was culturally<br />
appropriate.<br />
The word kai in this case is<br />
used as a prefix to verbs and<br />
stipulates the person of the<br />
action. For example mahi (work)<br />
is kaimahi/worker and kōrero<br />
(speak) is kaikōrero/speaker.<br />
Rūri is a translated English<br />
word for ruler, so Kairūri means<br />
surveyor. The community board<br />
has previously had concerns<br />
about the road naming policy<br />
and last year asked the city<br />
council to review the policy to<br />
enable better outcomes.<br />
We were concerned that<br />
there is currently little resident<br />
involvement and also that it was<br />
difficult to encourage developers<br />
to present Te Reo names as<br />
options.<br />
The city has very few<br />
Maori street names, even<br />
with the long historic connection<br />
to the area and so this was<br />
one of the issues that we took<br />
into consideration when we<br />
approved the developers’ third<br />
option.<br />
I am hopeful that the review of<br />
the policy will mean both greater<br />
community involvement in road<br />
naming processes, especially<br />
in existing communities, and a<br />
greater recognition of tangata<br />
whenua. Ngā mihi<br />
Hoon Hay school finalist in excellence awards<br />
HOON HAY School has been<br />
named a finalist in the <strong>2018</strong><br />
Prime Minister’s Education<br />
Excellence Awards.<br />
The awards celebrate outstanding<br />
education practices across the<br />
country and this year 15 finalists<br />
selected from 127 entries.<br />
Hoon Hay is a finalist in one<br />
category, excellence in teaching<br />
and learning/atatū award.<br />
Ministry of Education deputy<br />
secretary for early learning<br />
and student achievement, Ellen<br />
MacGregor-Reid said the<br />
finalists’ entries demonstrated<br />
excellent teaching practices that<br />
support student achievement.<br />
“I’d like to congratulate this<br />
year’s finalists in the awards. We<br />
will celebrate their achievements<br />
and share their stories with<br />
the sector, communities, and<br />
whānau. I wish the finalists all<br />
the best for the announcement of<br />
FUN: Hoon<br />
Hay School<br />
is a finalist<br />
in the Prime<br />
Minister’s<br />
Education<br />
Excellence<br />
Awards.<br />
the winners in July,” she said.<br />
The school wanted to ensure<br />
that Māori achieve success and<br />
enjoy the same level of academic<br />
success in mathematics as other<br />
students in their school.<br />
To achieve this, the school<br />
introduced and expanded their<br />
use of a unique mathematical<br />
problem solving approach across<br />
the school to ensure that each<br />
student has the opportunity to<br />
engage in worthwhile mathematical<br />
tasks.<br />
To support this, the leadership<br />
team prioritised mathematics as<br />
the sole professional focus.<br />
They successfully raised student<br />
engagement and outcomes<br />
in mathematics across the school<br />
as a result.<br />
Members of the award’s judging<br />
panel are visiting the finalists<br />
during <strong>May</strong> and June to see their<br />
work and speak with all involved.<br />
Winners from each category<br />
will receive $20,000 and a<br />
professional development<br />
opportunity.<br />
The Prime Minister’s supreme<br />
award will then be selected<br />
from the category winners. It is<br />
presented to the early learning<br />
service, school or kura that has<br />
had the greatest influence on<br />
education outcomes.<br />
The winner of this will receive<br />
an additional $30,000 and an<br />
opportunity to represent New<br />
Zealand in an international education<br />
conference.<br />
The awards ceremony will be<br />
held in Wellington in July.<br />

Former pro surfer honoured during paddle out<br />
•From page 1<br />
King narrowly came second to<br />
Australian surfer Mark Occhilupo<br />
in the Konica contest.<br />
He began surfing at age 11 after<br />
volunteers, including his father<br />
Wally, helped start a surfing<br />
programme as part of St Ambrose<br />
Anglican Church’s drop-in<br />
centre.<br />
Faith Family Fellowship<br />
Aranui soon found out the group<br />
was interested in surfing and donated<br />
their old surfboards from<br />
the 1940s.<br />
It wasn’t long before King<br />
“caught the bug”. He took just<br />
three weeks to pick up surfing<br />
while the rest of the group took<br />
about 18 months.<br />
His sister Nga Anderson said<br />
he would borrow other people’s<br />
surfboards and they would laugh<br />
at him until they saw him surf.<br />
•From page 1<br />
“We find that on the evidence<br />
placed before us that the locality<br />
is very vulnerable, contains a<br />
high number of housing units for<br />
those affected by mental illness<br />
and addiction issues, including<br />
alcohol addiction.”<br />
The community rallied to stop<br />
the proposal because it<br />
was 50m from Thirsty Liquor,<br />
and close to several others, with<br />
121 submitting to object the<br />
proposal.<br />
The decision is the latest in a<br />
string of successful community<br />
campaigns to stop liquor stores<br />
opening in their areas, including<br />
Harewood.<br />
Edmonds Factory Garden<br />
spokesman and nearby resident<br />
John Hoskin said they were<br />
“highly delighted” and it was<br />
a “wonderful community<br />
effort.”<br />
“It just goes to show if you<br />
don’t try you’ll never get anywhere.”<br />
He said people drunk in the<br />
historic gardens during the day<br />
and night leaving rubbish and<br />
“That was when they had different<br />
respect for him,” she said.<br />
EXIT Surf Shop owner Tristan<br />
Bennett said no one had heard<br />
of him before he competed in a<br />
Canterbury scholastic surfing<br />
competition when he was 13 and<br />
“blew everyone away”.<br />
“I have got people who would<br />
come into the surf shop and say ‘I<br />
have just been down at Brighton;<br />
there is a kid out there destroying<br />
intimidating people and families.<br />
Medical Officer of Health<br />
Cheryl Brunton said she was<br />
pleased with the decision and it<br />
was a win for the community.<br />
“While the effect of this decision<br />
is primarily local, it will help<br />
contribute to reducing alcohol<br />
related harm and perhaps also<br />
encourage other communities to<br />
voice their concerns about new<br />
alcohol outlets.”<br />

it’,” he said.<br />
Photographer Warren Hawke,<br />
who travelled with King for<br />
photoshoots over a period of two<br />
to three years, said he had an<br />
uncanny natural surfing ability.<br />
He said at the beginning of his<br />
career, King started to win contests<br />
on surfboards which were<br />
not even up to high performance<br />
level at the time.<br />
He was quickly picked up as a<br />
professional and sponsored by<br />
the Exit Surf Shop, surf clothing<br />
and board company O’Neill,<br />
Linwood Ward city councillor<br />
Yani Johanson welcomed the<br />
decision.<br />
“It’s good news for the<br />
community, they’ve worked<br />
really hard.”<br />
Mr Lawry said Liquorland<br />
abided by its obligations under<br />
the Sale and Supply of Alcohol<br />
Act, and ran information<br />
programmes about responsible<br />
consumption.<br />
“Our aim is to offer consumers<br />
choice for occasions with friends<br />
and family and for celebrations<br />
of all types, in a safe and sensible<br />
way.”<br />
In his evidence during the<br />
hearing, Phillipstown Neighbourhood<br />
Policing Team officer<br />
in charge Sergeant Michael<br />
Kingston said further availability<br />
would exacerbate the existing<br />
alcohol abuse and related harm<br />
in the area.<br />
Meanwhile, Linwood College<br />
deputy principal Melissa Young<br />
said 20-30 per cent of students<br />
sought counselling services, and<br />
in about 90 per cent of those<br />
cases alcohol was a factor.<br />

Crime at post-quake drinking spots<br />
A new report has<br />
analysed the city’s<br />
post-quake drinking<br />
spots and whether<br />
crime followed.<br />
Bridget Rutherford<br />
looks at the findings<br />
THEY WERE the places where<br />
people went to drink when the<br />
popular central city nightlife<br />
spots closed following the<br />
February <strong>22</strong>, 2011, earthquake.<br />
Some were makeshift nightclubs<br />
in the suburbs, some were<br />
restaurants that turned into bars<br />
after dinner service finished,<br />
while others were places many<br />
never would have frequented<br />
before the quakes.<br />
But at the time there was little<br />
to choose from.<br />
Now, a new report, Postearthquake<br />
analysis of crime and<br />
alcohol outlets in Christchurch,<br />
commissioned by the Health<br />
Promotion Agency, has analysed<br />
where people tended to drink<br />
following the quake, where the<br />
liquor outlets were, and if there<br />
was an increase in crime as a<br />
result.<br />
The report, by Greg Breetzke,<br />
Benjamin Elley and Jarrod<br />
Gilbert, looked at the period<br />
between 2009-2014, and six case<br />
studies in particular.<br />
It found the areas where more<br />
people tended to go to drink following<br />
the quake mostly resulted<br />
in a temporary spike in crime<br />
because there were more people<br />
in the area.<br />
However, most had returned<br />
to normal as the central city<br />
revitalised.<br />
The case studies included the<br />
central city, Merivale, Riccarton,<br />
Church Corner, Hornby and<br />
Papanui.<br />
The central city saw little offending<br />
because popular spots<br />
such as The Strip, Poplar Lane<br />
and Sol Square had closed.<br />
While some bars were available<br />
in the central city, such as on St<br />
Asaph St, Victoria St and Lincoln<br />
BINGE: The report found the suburbs had an increase in patronage, with many existing bars and<br />
restaurants transforming into nightclubs.<br />
Rd, the report found they were<br />
spread apart and little crime was<br />
recorded.<br />
The suburbs were where patronage<br />
increased significantly,<br />
the report said.<br />
Merivale was one of those areas,<br />
with bars such as Aikmans,<br />
JDV and Bardello clustered<br />
around Merivale Mall becoming<br />
more popular.<br />
Some bars in the area said they<br />
had seen a “significant” increase<br />
in patronage, and an increased<br />
range of patrons including a mix<br />
of business people, tradesmen<br />
and younger patrons with disposable<br />
income.<br />
The worst year for crime was<br />
in 2012, but it had decreased significantly<br />
since then. Dishonesty<br />
crime, such as burglary, vehicle<br />
conversion or theft, and property<br />
damage was the most common.<br />
The crime rate in Merivale was<br />
relatively low compared to the<br />
other case studies.<br />
However, it received a lot of<br />
public interest in 2013, when<br />
former Black Caps player Jesse<br />
Ryder was assaulted outside Aikmans<br />
and hospitalised.<br />
The report found there was an<br />
increase in offending between<br />
midnight and 1am in 2011, which<br />
police said could have been a<br />
result of the shortlived nightclub.<br />
Since then crime had dropped.<br />
Riccarton was another area<br />
that became more popular with<br />
bars such as the Running Bull,<br />
Fox & Ferrett and The Craic becoming<br />
popular. Police began to<br />
focus on the area as a result.<br />
The report said a lot of bars<br />
converted into “nightclub style”<br />
bars to keep up with the patronage<br />
levels.<br />
In 2011/12, crime in the area<br />
around Westfield Riccarton, increased<br />
by 26 per cent, but it had<br />
since dropped back down.<br />
Night-time offending increased<br />
substantially in 2012, and to a<br />
lesser extent in 2013, between<br />
10pm-midnight, the report<br />
found. It dropped back down in<br />
2014.<br />
The report said a lot of offending<br />
was down to deliberate<br />
enforcement projects by police on<br />
alcohol ban breaches in the area.<br />
While Church Corner had seen<br />
a large increase in the number of<br />
liquor licences, most were restaurants,<br />
not bars.<br />
There was no increase in corresponding<br />
offending.<br />
The majority of liquor licences<br />
in Hornby were bars, sports clubs<br />
and liquor stores, and there was a<br />
lower density of outlets compared<br />
to the other areas.<br />
The average number of offences<br />
rose by 11 per cent in 2011 and<br />
2013, which had since remained<br />
steady.<br />
The report comes after the city<br />
council was forced to scrap its<br />
Local Alcohol Policy in November.<br />
It has since agreed to develop<br />
a new one, which would restrict<br />
where and when alcohol can be<br />
sold.<br />
Community Action on Youth<br />
And Drugs senior project worker<br />
Paul McMahon said alcohol was<br />
the most harmful drug because it<br />
was so easy to access.<br />
CAYAD wants the city council<br />
to introduce a targeted rate on<br />
off-licence premises, including<br />
supermarkets.<br />
Mr McMahon said pre-loading<br />
was more common than drinking<br />
at bars and if alcohol was<br />
more expensive, it would act as a<br />
deterrence.<br />
“Harmful drinking has<br />
increased since 2011 across the<br />
board. The amount we’re drinking<br />
keeps going up.”<br />
He said it was more common<br />
for women aged 24-25.<br />
Canterbury Metro area prevention<br />
manager acting Inspector<br />
Paul Reeves said police did a lot<br />
of work in the alcohol space.<br />
“As well as collaborating with<br />
key partners, such as the District<br />
Health Board and the city council,<br />
there are specialist police staff<br />
who prevent harm through the<br />
monitoring of licences and by<br />
creating a safe drinking environment.”<br />
The research found existing<br />
licences adapted to suit larger<br />
numbers.<br />
It said existing “tavern-style”<br />
premises had transformed to “de<br />
facto nightclubs”, while some<br />
restaurants became “quasi bars”<br />
switching to alcohol service after<br />
dinner.<br />
The places that saw large<br />
increases in patronage were clustered<br />
around malls and other food<br />
outlets, and easily accessible.<br />
The report said as the central<br />
city revitalised, with places such<br />
as The Terrace opening, it was<br />
important to look at how to<br />
“minimise disruption.”<br />

From one Coastal to another<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
COASTAL SPIRIT midfielder<br />
Lauren Dabner may be<br />
chasing her football dream<br />
halfway round the world,<br />
but her heart belongs in<br />
Christchurch.<br />
The former Riccarton High<br />
School student is enjoying<br />
her off-season by playing for<br />
the Coastal premier women’s<br />
team, safe in the knowledge<br />
she still has more to prove in<br />
the United States.<br />
The <strong>22</strong>-year-old is set to<br />
play for Coastal Carolina<br />
University from July after<br />
leaving Texas Tech.<br />
The exercise science<br />
major said her first year of<br />
a scholarship in Texas was<br />
tough on many levels but the<br />
struggles were worth it.<br />
“I certainly had thoughts<br />
about not continuing but I’m<br />
so glad that I got through that<br />
first year because it’s been so<br />
worth it,” she said.<br />
“It’s a combination of a lot<br />
of things – you’re a long way<br />
from home, in unfamiliar<br />
surroundings playing in a new<br />
league.”<br />
The former under-17 New<br />
Zealand representative has<br />
also been part of a World Cup<br />
bid.<br />
Living abroad and playing<br />
women’s football in a global<br />
stronghold has had its<br />
challenges.<br />
“The game is more physical<br />
(in the US); the standard is<br />
very high,” she said.<br />
Coastal Carolina University<br />
is in NCAA division one and<br />
Dabner is motivated to put her<br />
stamp on things.<br />
“They’re a young team who<br />
have finished runner-up in<br />
their conference the past two<br />
seasons so to get the that top<br />
MIDFIELD ACE: Lauren<br />
Dabner hopes to win her<br />
conference and make the<br />
national NCAA women’s<br />
football tournament in<br />
the United States with her<br />
new college team this<br />
year.<br />
PHOTO GARY BENNETT<br />
SPORTS<br />
finish would be great.”<br />
Dabner said she was always<br />
excited to come home and play<br />
for Coastal Spirit.<br />
“I’ve been with them for<br />
seven seasons and they’ve<br />
been very supportive with<br />
me chasing this dream and<br />
allowing me to come home<br />
and play when I’m available.”<br />
Dabner has put her New<br />
Zealand international career<br />
on hold until her studies and<br />
scholarship are complete.<br />
“If you want to be part of<br />
that set up you have to be in<br />
Auckland and right now I’m<br />
committed to my studies and<br />
helping my team reach their<br />
goals.<br />
“I’m still young enough that<br />
I can come back, too, when<br />
things change.”<br />
Right now, Dabner wants<br />
to help her two Coastal teams<br />
earn victories.<br />

100 games for Sydenham stalwart<br />
SPORTS<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
IT’S SAFE to say Sydenham<br />
flanker Reuben Harvey was more<br />
eager to remember his 100th<br />
game for the club on Saturday<br />
than he was his 50th.<br />
The evergreen flanker reached<br />
the century mark after a tenure<br />
spanning about 12 years.<br />
He celebrated the milestone<br />
with a 31-3 win over Burnside.<br />
Milestone games have not been<br />
kind to the 35-year-old who, in<br />
his 50th cap and blazer game,<br />
was benched and then suffered a<br />
nasty eye socket injury.<br />
“I’d missed Tuesday training<br />
that week because of work so<br />
the coach benched me to set an<br />
example, even though it was the<br />
last game of the season,” he said.<br />
“I got on and ended up<br />
smashing my eye socket late in<br />
the game, so I missed the after<br />
match and had to have a rather<br />
awkward blazer ceremony the<br />
following week.”<br />
In spite of returning to<br />
Blenheim where he grew up for<br />
a short period, as well as stints<br />
playing rugby in the United<br />
Kingdom, Harvey said he has<br />
never wanted to play for another<br />
club in Christchurch other than<br />
Sydenham.<br />
“I was always drawn to the<br />
great club atmosphere and I liked<br />
the nod to history that they had<br />
with the blazers and that sort of<br />
thing.”<br />
Harvey received a gold pin to<br />
attach to his club blazer in commemoration<br />
of his 100th game.<br />
He said while his wife “would<br />
probably like me to retire today,”<br />
he believes he still has plenty to<br />
offer.<br />
“I want to keep going until the<br />
wheels fall off,” he said.<br />
“I’d hate to look back when I’m<br />
60 and think that I could have<br />
gone for another season.”<br />
One motivation for Harvey<br />
has been to give Sydenham an<br />
elusive premier title.<br />
“We thought we were close last<br />
year, and in the sheds I think we<br />
realised we’d let ourselves down<br />
by not winning it all,” he said.<br />
“We have a team this year<br />
which has the potential to do it.”<br />

Photo finish for racing’s ‘lucky charm’<br />
• By Jacob Page<br />
AFTER 60 years of covering<br />
horse racing in Canterbury,<br />
photographer Colin Berry has<br />
retired – sort of.<br />
The 81-year-old, who lives in<br />
Hornby, has been a regular sight<br />
at Canterbury race meetings,<br />
especially Riccarton Park gallops<br />
and Addington trots, since the<br />
late 1950s.<br />
He has been photographing<br />
winning horses, delighted<br />
trainers, drivers and jockeys, and<br />
ecstatic race owners for most of<br />
his adult life – and says he will<br />
miss it.<br />
“A few years ago I had a double<br />
hip replacement and I feel like<br />
I’ve been slowing down since,”<br />
he said.<br />
“It’s always been great to photograph<br />
happy people.<br />
“A lot of owners or trainers<br />
would come up to me early in the<br />
night and say to me ‘I’m looking<br />
forward to seeing you after<br />
my race’ as if I was their lucky<br />
charm.”<br />
Born and bred in Christchurch,<br />
Mr Berry began his career<br />
during a three-month period of<br />
compulsory military training<br />
near the Ohakea Air Force Base<br />
in Palmerston North.<br />
He became a photographer’s<br />
assistant at Addington Raceway<br />
in 1956 doing photo finishes, and<br />
the rest as they say is history.<br />
As well as racing shots, he also<br />
did horse breeding photography.<br />
I won’t miss the cold of the<br />
winter night meetings but I’ve<br />
just loved the camaraderie that<br />
you have from working in the<br />
industry,” Mr Berry said.<br />
“There was a lot of mixed emotions<br />
on the night but my son<br />
Ajay has taken over for me and<br />
he’s just fantastic.<br />
“I’ll just be the messenger boy<br />
now, delving the odd photo and<br />
doing odd jobs in the office.”<br />
Mr Berry said he remembers<br />
covering the Addington Raceway<br />
grandstand fire in 1961 as one<br />
of New Zealand’s best standard<br />
bred horses, Cardigan Bay, led a<br />
race from start to finish,<br />
He said Christian Cullen remained<br />
one of his favourite horses,<br />
not only for his dominance<br />
on the track, but also because of<br />
his physical make up.<br />
“He’d be one of the best I’ve<br />
seen, he was just so well put<br />
together physically and a joy to<br />
photograph,” Mr Berry said. “It’s<br />
very hard to compare horses<br />
from different eras, though.”<br />
Mr Berry said technology advancement<br />
has made the biggest<br />
difference in race photography<br />
over time.<br />
“Back in the day, to try to get<br />
a photo of a horse with all four<br />
MOMENTS IN TIME: Colin<br />
Berry remembers covering<br />
the Addington Raceway<br />
grandstand fire in 1961 and<br />
taking photos of pacing<br />
legend Christian Cullen<br />
(above).<br />
of its feet off the ground while<br />
warming up was a real skill,” he<br />
said.<br />
“I’d listen from the beat and<br />
the pace of the hooves . . . now<br />
you can snaps 14 photos off in<br />
1sec.<br />
“That happiness of nailing the<br />
perfect shot when you only had<br />
one shot at it back in the day is<br />
replaced by frustration if you<br />
don’t get it these days with the<br />
quality cameras.”<br />
