I love the Christchurch Photo Hunt, opens a new window. And this month it's happening once again. I can't wait to see all the new photos go up.
Past Photo Hunts have given us hundreds of images of families and friends celebrating everyday events and activities from around the Canterbury district. They are incredibly touching to browse. The annual Photo Hunt, going since 2008, is slowly building a fascinating photographic archive for us all to share.
One of my favourites from the 2014 Photo Hunt is a shout out to the 50s. It's all about the dresses, the shoes, the hair.

My favourite postcard from the 2013 Photo Hunt. Postcards and old cityscapes, just lurvely.

The photos are scanned by librarians and the originals are returned to owners. The digital copies are uploaded for us all to browse and enjoy. These and past images are also accessible from DigitalNZ, opens a new window, an extremely useful website for researching family history.
Let's share our photos with the Christchurch Photo Hunt and help preserve the heritage of Canterbury for everyone.
