Maupuia

Wellington

Propeller Studios, Shelly Bay, Wellington. The spot is part of a nice loop you can do around the Miramar peninsula, walking, on a bike or by car. The studios themselves are large and appealingly rundown old buildings. They house film prop rentals, some galleries and various artistic and creative endeavours, which are helpful to the nearby Wellington film industry (think Lord of the Rings etc) 

New Zealand. Nikon FE2 and 85mm Nikkor 1:2 lens. Illford 400 Delta.

Clean and convenient.. don’t have to leave the airport. Restaurant on site but did not use it… food also available at the airport, but only mediocre. But for an airport overnight stay it works well..
