Homage
to Baxter
Resonance XIX
Panorama of West Matukituki Valley
with the Raspberry Hut
1994
Again, it was the images taken at
the Raspberry Hut on the second trip in winter that were more successful.
It was interesting that the hut still stands and apart from a different
pile of fire wood and a thin layer of paint it appears untouched from the
time that Baxter used it. |

But these nights, my friend,
under the iron roof
Of this old rabbiters' hut....
And the rock of barren friendship,
has now another shape....
Tears from faces of stone. They
are our own tears.
