Wainuiomata: Photos
Photographic timeline of Wainuiomata
Documenting Wainuiomata with an ever growing collection of photos. This includes locations such as the town centre, suburbs, landscapes, coastline, rivers, and reserves.
Photo articles are dated by the age of the main photo or the main subject rather than when the article was written. This places the photos in a timeline. Some photos date back to the 1800s. We either have permission to show these old photos or they have no copyright. Modern photos on the site were taken by David Johnson of Wainuiomata.Net unless otherwise specified.
