My SPACE for project 1 is Duck Pond in Upper Hutt on Rimutaka motorway. Near about in 1980’s there was just this empty playground area and due to heavy rains, water started getting collected in the corner on the low side of the area. Soon that corner became a pond and ducks from around bushes and river side started hibernating in and around the pond. Later on, City Council of Upper Hutt turned that area into Duck Pond by cleaning it up, planted more trees and made a play area as well for children. It’s been a public park now. This is really interesting place as the way the trees, bushes and pathways are, they just interest you as there’ s been like a story behind them. Moreover this pond lies just in between motorway and vast river flowing down beside the motorway. A person is just attracted by how naturally this park brings peace to mind. I had tried to capture that feeling of peace, calmness and quietness in the photographs.
