    Wonderful to see this being built. I think this is the waka at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds.

    Thanks Clive - I think you are right and it seems to be the same. I posted these on an Aotearoa Facebook site and got some great feedback which enables us to update the catalogue.

    Congratulations on making Explore - what a well-deserved recognition! This image beautifully captures the quiet focus and skill of the carver as they bring the whakairo to life; the way the light falls across the totem and the artisan's hands makes the moment feel timeless and reverent. Your composition and timing honor both the craft and the cultural significance of the work - stunning storytelling through a single frame. Keep sharing these powerful glimpses; your eye for atmosphere and respect for the subject truly stands out.
