A group of southern photographers are breaking all the rules in their Dunedin exhibition.
The group is made up of 11 photographers who met over Zoom during lockdown and created the group OurSight.
The group’s exhibition "Boundless" is open to the public at the Dunedin Community Gallery until September 20.
OurSight photographer Noelle Bennett felt photography was "very rule bound" — but for them "anything goes".
"There’s all these rules, you must do this, the horizon must be there.
"‘Boundless’ gets rid of all those rules.
"You don’t have the distinctiveness that you have in other photography, you just try and convey how it felt at the time."
Ms Bennett moved to New Zealand in 2002 to work as a radiation therapist.
"I come from a family of artists, and I’m no good at painting.
"I felt that music was my art until I took up photography.
"Then my camera was my canvas."
Ms Bennett planned to auction her photo The Colour of Cold and give the proceeds to a hospice.
Photographer Greg Hughson, who had been taking photos for 60 years, said "there’s a lot of beauty in the world to record".
"We’re all different, but I think that’s what makes it all beautiful.
"It’s all an insight into how each of us sees the world."
Free workshops exploring the use of artificial intelligence, differing perspectives and virtual software experiments take place this weekend.
